At least three people have been killed and several others wounded in a shooting at the Bite of Seattle food festival near the city's Space Needle landmark. The assistant police chief Tyrone Davis said
It’s heartbreaking that a place meant for community and food becomes a scene like this. It reminds me of how these high-traffic public landmarks are becoming such targets lately. I wonder if there's any long-term plan to change how we secure these open festivals without ruining the welcoming atmosphere. Just devastating.

Absolutely heartbreaking. There’s no room for this kind of violence, especially at a community event where families are just trying to enjoy themselves. My heart goes out to the victims and their families. We have to do better to protect our people. Stay strong, Seattle.
