Bullets that killed two at Seattle food festival do not match teen shooter’s gun, police say

Police in Seattle have stated that bullets recovered from two bystanders killed at a food festival do not match the "ghost gun" fired by a 15-year-old arrested at the scene. The shooting, which occurred on Sunday and is linked to gang violence, involved at least four weapons, according to shell casings found. While the teen has been charged with assault and unlawful handgun possession, prosecutors are seeking to move his case to adult court for potentially harsher penalties. Authorities are still working to identify other individuals involved in the shootout, which also injured at least four other bystanders, including a two-year-old boy.

Bullets recovered from two bystanders killed at the Bite of Seattle food festival last weekend do not appear to have originated from the gun fired by a 15-year-old arrested at the scene, according to police in court documents. The teen faces charges of first-degree assault and unlawful handgun possession by someone under 18. Preliminary testing indicates the bullets that killed the victims did not match the untraceable ghost gun the teen was seen firing. Shell casings suggest four weapons were discharged during the shootout, which also resulted in the death of a 19-year-old suspect and injuries to at least four others. Police are actively seeking to identify at least one other individual involved in the incident, and the motive is believed to be gang-related.

Seattle police now state that at least three shooters were involved in a weekend shootout at a food festival near the Space Needle. One of the deceased individuals at the scene is believed to be one of the shooters. A document filed in juvenile court indicates police suspect the 15-year-old arrested in the case, a deceased acquaintance, and at least one other unknown suspect were involved. Investigators believe the 15-year-old and one of the deceased engaged in a gunfight with at least one other unknown suspect. The 15-year-old did not appear for a scheduled court appearance on Monday.
