A man identified by Seattle Police as Ian Stawicki entered Cafe Racer 58th NE and Roosevelt Way today around 11:00am and shot five people, killing three of them then fled. Shortly before noon an argument between a man and a woman at 8th & Seneca at Town Hall resulted in a shooting of the female driver. She was later pronounced dead. The Mercedes SUV was driven to West Seattle and abandoned in the 4100 block of Delridge Way SW. Police had originally called this incident a car jacking. The SUV was towed away for further investigation.

A weapon was found inside the SUV based on SPD scanner traffic.

Then later the incidents came together as police attempted to stop a suspect in West Seattle near 37th and Raymond Street s.w. According to reports the suspect stopped, knelt and shot himself in the temple. He did not die from this and was transported to Harborview.
Sealth, Denny, Hope lutheran, Seattle Lutheran, Tilden schools were sheltered in place/locked down as precaution but were opened and released on time.

Margaret Way at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center said, they had fifty kids and several teachers and artists inside at the time of the lockdown. She said, "I think it is good they are taking precautions because they don't seem to know what the person looks like or where he is located. Right now we'd rather be safe there's been too much bloodshed today."
