SEATTLE (AP) - A woman was killed and a man was critically injured in a shooting outside a North Seattle motel early Tuesday morning, according to Seattle police.
KOMO-TV reports officers were called to the Everspring Inn on Aurora Avenue just after 3 a.m. for a reported disturbance in the parking lot that led to shots fired, says department spokesperson Mark Jamieson.
They arrived to find the body of a woman in the parking lot. A short time later they received a call that a man with gunshots wounds had just arrived by private vehicle at Harborview Medical Center, Jamieson said. Doctors say the man has life-threatening injuries and is listed in critical condition.
