happening now. Police in Seattle say one person is in custody following a deadly
mass shooting there. Let's go over to Boston 25 News anchor Ray Vietta now
back with that investigation and also what witnesses are saying about these
terrifying moments. Nicole, we know that three people are dead, four others are
hurt. Investigators say a two year old boy among those hurt but is expected to
survive. Police say it took place during an annual food festival about a block
from Seattle's Space Needle. The shooting happened around six p.m.
Yesterday, nine p.m. Our time. This cell phone video shows people sheltering in
place inside a nearby store. After the shooting, witnesses say they heard a lot
of gunshots. There was one volley, which we heard a lot of people didn't react
at first because we thought, Oh, it must be firecrackers or something. But then
there was a second volley. I would say at least two dozen shots, multiple
selling an automatic weapon. Seattle's assistant police chief says dozens of
officers were providing security at the festival and some reports seeing the
suspects firing shots. He says those responding officers help prevent more
people from being hurt. So far, police have not revealed the motive in that
shooting.
