4th person killed overnight in Seattle's deadly weekend of gun violence
[KOMONEWS] Police detectives are working overtime after a man was shot and killed Sunday night outside an apartment building in the Lake City neighborhood - Seattle's fourth homicide in less than 24 hours.

Officers and medics responded to the scene, in the 12700 block of 33rd Avenue NE, at around 10 p.m. after several 911 callers reported hearing a series of gunshots.

A security guard at the apartment building found a man with a gunshot wound to his chest and helped emergency personnel get to the victim.

Officers and medics attempted life-saving measures but the 28-year-old victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

A preliminary investigation found that the victim was returning home to his apartment when a car pulled up and multiple people opened fire, said Valerie Carson of the Seattle police.

Another person was also struck with a bullet and has a graze wound after that bullet went into one of the nearby apartments.
