Car chase and collision in the ID
A car collided with another vehicle at the corner of Dearborn and 7th Ave So. on Labor Day. The crash was a result of a shootout at the Central District’s Powell Barnett Park. No park visitors were hit due to gunfire.
The incident was reported approximately 3:30 p.m. according to police records. After the multiple shots fired, it then resulted in a car chase which led to the collision in the International District. An officer in pursuit reported the collision.
According to the Capitol Hill Seattle Blog, “One teenage suspect was quickly apprehended by police but a long search of the area for the second suspect — described as a heavy set black male around 6′ and wearing a black puffy jacket and a red t-shirt — was not successful. Police also recovered a revolver on the ground near the crash scene.” (end)
