Police surround Seattle home where person of interest in police shooting may be hiding A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. By Seattle Times staff A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. Police responded to the home at East Yesler Way and 32nd Avenue South where police stopped a woman who was leaving the home. She told them Maurice Clemmons was on the property and bleeding, according to a law enforcement source. The woman told police that someone had dropped Clemmons off at the home. The source also said police had received tips about two other properties they needed to search, in Queen Anne and Renton. At 8:44 p.m., Seattle police received information that the person of interest may be in a Leschi home, according to Seattle police spokesman Jeff Kappel. Police are now trying to confirm the identity of the person inside. Police blocked off the street at East Yesler and 30th Avenue South. Police are telling residents to stay indoors and keep their doors locked.

Please resist arrest. Please come out guns blazing.
(Problem is these vermin are usually cowards.)
My bet is that he shoots himself.
I hope they take the bastard out.
Is he a Muslim ?
Probably.
Unless he’s gonna plead “racism”.
“My bet is that he shoots himself.”
Works for me also.
I think he is too much of a coward. Picks on little kids and unarmed people.
Looks like they are going to nab Huckabee II...
From another neighborhood news site:
SWAT officers have surrounded a home in the Leschi neighborhood and are apparently looking for the person of interest sought in connection with this morning’s shooting in Parkland.
The home is on E Superior Street and Erie Avenue.
K9 and negotiator units are on scene.
Seattle police spokesman Sean Whitcomb would only say the SWAT call out “may be” related to the murder of four officers in Parkland this morning. The registered owner of the home shares a last name of the person of interest in the shooting, Maurice Clemmons.
jseattle is on the way to the scene. We’ll update this as we learn more.
Update: According to scanner traffic, the suspect involved here is wounded and armed. Anyone in the area of the stand-off should stay in their homes and away from windows.
9:53PM - Media helicopters causing trouble - Just heard Car 7, who I think is now McDonagh, telling news helicopters to back off because they are “compromising safety”
10:07PM - Big Perimeter - FYI - The perimeter for this operation is huge, as far east as 32nd Ave and several blocks north and south of Yesler. If you live in that area, don’t leave as it could be some time before you can get home. If you’re currently out and trying to get back home, it’s unlikely that you’ll be allowed until the whole thing is over.
Note that stand-offs often last for hours.
10:18PM - Prepare for noise - It sounds like the tempo of SWAT operations is picking up. If you live in the area, be prepared for lots of loud noises. They’ve got a big arsenal and it is very, very loud.
Stay in your homes, away from windows, and don’t bother calling 911 if you hear what sounds like gunshots.

The other problem is Seattle cops--being Seattle cops-- might shoot him with beanbag rounds.

Oh well, might as well put him out of his misery.

Police chatter says there are 7 rifles and shotguns in the house.
They’re just a few blocks from the scene of the other shooting.
The article quotes the investigators as stating they had “no motive” for the shootings. If the victims had been black and the shooter white, it would immediately have been classified a “hate crime”. Here goes the anti-white PC double standard crap again. From liberal Washington State. Every time a black person offs white folk, investigators have to “search” for a “motive”.
“Live police scanner monitor here . Not much going on.”
They switched to the SWAT attack freq about 15min ago, so you wont here much from here on except for traffic control. But if gunfire happens expect it all to light up.
Hopefully it ends in his death, so that some idiot politician can’t grant this murderous bastard clemency again.
