Shooting at I-5 / 45th

  • Post author:

I-5 southbound has been shutdown following a shooting involving a Washington State Trooper. King 5 reports:

While few details are available, Washington State Patrol Trooper Chris Webb tweeted that a trooper was responding to a car fire. After arriving, he quickly was involved in a shooting with a subject.

The trooper called for backup after shots were fired. The trooper was not injured in the shooting.

Seattle Fire says one man in his 20s has been transported to Harborview Medical Center with gunshot wounds.

I’m out of town at the moment with limited Internet, so I won’t be able to follow-up with this story. If you have additional details to share with the neighbors, please post them to the comments.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Weird story. I heard sirens coming up Latona about 7pm tonight. Helicopters arrived about half hour later. They’re gone now.

    freeway still closed as far as I can tell from looking at the Ship Canal Bridge from my window. The closure is up at 1st Av/Ngate Way (exit 173)

    Closed 15 minutes ago as I crossed the ship canal bridge northbound. Dumbass rubberneckers jamming northbound traffic.
