SEATTLE - Authorities are investigating a shooting involving a police officer in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood late Thursday afternoon.
What we know:
The shooting occurred near the intersection of NW 62nd St and 28th Ave NW, and the Seattle Police Department confirmed it involved an officer.
According to Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes, officers responded to a domestic violence call, where the caller stated someone was following her.
Three officers arrived on scene and encountered the suspect, and weapons were fired.
The suspect was shot by officers and taken to an area hospital for observation.
One officer suffered a graze wound to the leg. It's unknown if the suspect or officer's gunfire caused the injury.
Witnesses told FOX 13 they heard 6–10 shots around the time of the shooting.
"I was sitting in my living room, and at around 5:45 p.m. I heard many pops, pop, ‘pop, pop, pop, pop,’" said one neighbor who asked to remain anonymous. "Once I saw all the police cars and the ambulance I knew something serious had happened."
There were several families using the nearby Ballard Community Center at the time. They told us that kids and adults ran into the community center to take shelter.
"It is customary to shelter in place whenever we have an exchange of gunfire, so that did happen. It has since been lifted and no one inside was injured or affected by this," said Chief Shon Barnes.
A spokesperson for Harborview Medical Center says the suspect was listed as critical Thursday night.
