Protest at Milo Yiannopoulos Event at University of Washington Ends in Gunfire

[HEATST] The victim, who is reported to have possibly sustained life-threatening injuries, is currently being treated at the Harborview Medical Center. Police state that the 34-year-old male received a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Little else is known of the victim’s identity at this point.

The suspect who fired the gun turned himself in and was locked away

on Saturday. He was accompanied by another individual. Both individuals were released later that day.

"Following investigation of the details surrounding the incident, and in consultation with the prosecuting attorney’s office, the suspects were released pending further investigation. No suspects remain outstanding," University police said in a statement.

The Seattle Times reports that law-enforcement officials said the shooter claims that the man he shot was "some type of white supremacist." Friends of the injured man say he isn’t a white supremacist, and that the tattoo identifying him as a racist is an anti-swastika symbol--a black swastika surrounded by a red circle with a slash through it. Antifa websites also identified the victim as a "comrade" of the left-leaning movement.

#6  lot's of reasons to charge the shooter and the other thugs

also, no witnesses corroborated the shooter's story - maybe he was lying

on the other hand all the thugs were leftists so in Seattle, they can't be guilty of anything really

#1  individuals were released later that day.

So, 'self-defense' but carrying on campus should be a federal firearms violation.
