A few of you emailed us asking about the tremendous police presence at Market St. near 15th Ave. around 11:30 last night — 10 police cars and officers armed with rifles in front of the fire station.
Detective Mark Jamieson with Seattle Police says that at 11:15 p.m. there were reports of an intoxicated male with a firearm driving in the Queen Anne neighborhood. The driver, in a white Hyundai, was seen driving across the Ballard Bridge. Police called in multiple units in a show of force when they pulled over the car on Market. One person in the vehicle was briefly detained. That person had a lawful concealed weapons permit and was not intoxicated. Det. Jamieson said another person was arrested for concealed weapons violation. The weapon was put into evidence. (Thank you everyone for the emails!)
