Una persona è morta e altre cinque sono rimaste ferite a Seattle, dove un uomo vestito di nero ha sparato in un’area affollata ed è poi fuggito a piedi, facendo perdere le sue tracce.

La polizia lo sta braccando. Tra i feriti anche un bambino di 9 anni e una donna, entrambi in condizioni critiche, e tre giovani, rispettivamente di 21, 34 e 35 anni.

L’aggressore avrebbe agito da solo, in una zona frequentata anche da turisti.
