There were no reported injuries early this morning on Broadway after officers heard several shots fired shortly after bar closing.
Just before 2:15 am, Nightlife Emphasis officers working near Broadway and East Pine heard six to seven shots fired just to the north of them.
False rumors are circulating on social media that an active shooter descended on Neighbors, a nearby gay nightclub targeted by an arsonist two years ago. One person claimed in an all-caps Facebook post there were multiple shooters at the club. Reached by phone this morning, a Neighbors employee (who asked not to be named because he wasn't officially authorized to speak for the business) said that's categorically false. "There is absolutely no connection," he said. He was at the club last night. "That is incorrect. The shooter was up the street from Neighbors."
Seattle police heard six to seven shots fired north of where they were working at Broadway and East Pine. A witness said an unknown male shot at them for unknown reasons. Officers found a broken window at a nearby apartment. Again, thankfully, no one was hurt.
