SEATTLE -- The King County Major Crimes Unit is investigating a shooting at the Creston Point Apartments in the 13400 block of MLK Way S where one man was shot in the chest and the shooter is on the loose.

Deputies say several panicked neighbors called 911 after hearing multiple gunshots inside the gates of the crowded apartment complex.

When deputies arrived they found a man in his 20's bleeding from a gunshot wound to the chest.

An ambulance raced the victim to Harborview Medical Center.

An officer told Q13Fox News that they could see about a dozen shell casings on the ground within the perimeter of the crime scene.

Detectives are in the process of interviewing witnesses.
