SEATTLE - Seattle Police are investigating three separate shootings that happened late Friday night into early Saturday morning.

The first shooting was reported around 10:30 p.m. Friday inside the Showbox SoDo, located at 1700 1st Ave. S.

SPD says a woman fired a single gunshot into the air during a concert. She was apparently injured in a "disturbance" and taken to Harborview Medical Center.

The woman was arrested for discharging a firearm, and police also arrested another woman and charged her with fourth-degree assault for her involvement in the disturbance.

This incident remains under investigation.

The second shooting happened around midnight on South Main St. and 6th Ave. S in the Chinatown-International District.

A 31-year-old man was found on-scene with a gunshot wound to the chest. He was transported to Harborview in critical condition. A firearm was also located at the scene and seized as evidence.

The suspect fled the area in a vehicle, but officers were able to track down his whereabouts and arrested him in Kent. He was booked into King County Jail for investigation of first-degree assault and faces additional weapons violations.

Detectives are still working to determine what led up to the shooting.

The third shooting happened on Aurora Avenue North and N. 101st Street at around 4 a.m.

According to Seattle Police, a bullet struck a natural gas line, prompting southbound lane closures for several blocks of Aurora Avenue.

Seattle Fire crews were dispatched around 4:09 p.m. to a report of a strong natural gas or propane odor. SPD officers were already investigating the shooting as hazmat crews responded to the area.

Puget Sound Energy was called out to fix the gas line, and the scene was cleared by 5 a.m.

No patients were treated on scene related to the shooting, according to Seattle Fire.
