SEATTLE (AP) - Police in Seattle say they’re searching for a shooter after a black BMW was hit by nine bullets Wednesday evening.

Detective Patrick Michaud says witnesses started calling 911 at about 6 p.m. to report shots fired along Rainier Avenue South in the city’s Mount Baker neighborhood. They described a passenger in a silver Audi firing toward a fleeing black BMW.

Officers found the BMW and its driver three blocks away in a convenience store parking lot. Michaud says the victim couldn’t describe the shooter and told police he only realized he’d been shot at when he stopped at the store and saw the bullet holes. The BMW driver was not hurt.



Gang unit detectives are investigating.
