Seattle police investigating fatal shooting on Capitol Hill following 'impromptu' block party

Police are investigating whether the shooting is related to an unofficial Biden victory party that happened in the neighborhood.

SEATTLE — A 31-year-old man was killed overnight in a shooting in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood.  

The shooting took place in the same area where hundreds of people were celebrating the outcome of the presidential race, however, police have not connected the two incidents.

The victim was shot at that same location at around 1 A.M. Sunday, and police said there were a lot of people around at the time of the shooting. 

No one has been arrested in the case.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Seattle Police Department’s Violent Crimes tip line at (206) 233-5000.
