According to the SPD, officers responded to a shooting near the corner of Aurora Ave. N and N 103rd St. at around 12:15 p.m.
Upon arrival, officers found two men in their 20s – both suffering from gunshot wounds. Officers provided first aid until Seattle Fire personnel took over. Both victims were taken to Harborview Medical Center in stable condition.
Officers secured the scene and processed the area for evidence. The SPD’s Gun Violence Reduction Unit detectives will lead the investigation.
It is unknown at this time what led up to the shooting. No suspects have been identified.
Seattle Police say over the last few weeks officers received several reports of shots fired incidents in this area. Back in mid-August, 31-year-old Cornell Callandret, Jr. was shot and killed on the same block.
Anyone with information that could help detectives is asked to call the SPD Violent Crimes Tip Line at 206-233-5000.
