Three killed in shootout at Seattle food festival
Three people died and several others were wounded in gunfire during the Bite of Seattle festival near the Space Needle on Sunday.
Gunfire erupted during the final hours of the Bite of Seattle, an annual food festival near the Space Needle, leaving three people dead and several wounded. Police say at least three suspects were involved in what appears to have been a shootout between them. A 15-year-old was arrested at the scene, but ballistics evidence indicates the bullets that killed two bystanders did not come from that teenager's weapon.
