In a shocking event on Aurora Avenue North, the Seattle Police Department is now knee-deep in an investigation after a shooting and armed robbery left one person injured. It’s not the kind of news anyone wants to wake up to, especially if you were just planning on enjoying a quiet day. It seems Aurora Avenue decided to take a detour from its usual rhythm and dive headfirst into a drama that feels like it belongs in a movie script.
The incident occurred in the 8700 block, no less, which probably had state-of-the-art brunch spots wondering if they should hire more security. As the police dig deeper into the circumstances surrounding the event, they’ve hinted that more details are on the way. In a world where every post has a #HappyEnding, this one’s still unfolding—let’s just hope it wraps up before anyone else winds up in the emergency room.
