More Blood on the Hill?
This time it’s First Hill. A whole shitload of emergency vehicles have gathered at Minor near Pike, at the Wintonia, a shelter for chronic alcoholics. The call logs indicate assault with a deadly weapon. I’ll check it out, then slog.
Update: According to police spokesman Sean Whitcomb, a person at the Wintonia was stabbed and the suspect was still at large. While treating the victim, police found the suspect — and he’d been stabbed, too. They’ve been transported to Harborview. I called Wintonia but the woman who answered the phone refused to tell me anything more about the incident.
Don't get me started on my lovely neighbors at the Wintonia...
It's a wet half-way house run by Catholic Community Services and it's loud and crazy at all hours.
It's not at all unusual to see cops and firemen going in with battering rams and stretchers.
