SEATTLE — Three women were injured during a shooting in North Seattle early Thursday morning, police say.
According to the Seattle Police Department, officers first responded to reports of gunfire near the intersection of Aurora Avenue N and N 96th Street at around midnight.
Arriving officers found an abandoned silver Ford riddled with bullet holes.
A short time later, police learned that three women had walked into UW Medical Center Northwest for treatment. One of the women had been shot multiple times, while the other two sustained injuries from shattered glass. All three women were reported to be in stable condition.
Medics later transferred the woman who had been shot to Harborview Medical Center for additional treatment.
Detectives determined the women were inside the Ford, facing west on North 96th Street, when a dark-colored sedan pulled in front of them. A suspect exited the sedan and opened fire on the Ford before getting back into the car. The suspect then left southbound on Aurora Avenue North, SPD reported.
Detectives are working to determine what led up to the shooting, asking anyone with information to call the Seattle Police Department Violent Crimes Tip Line at (206) 233-5000.
