A 15-year-old boy, accused of shooting a 22-year-old SeaTac man in the arm Tuesday night, was booked into the King County Youth Center on investigation of assault.
Officers arrived at an apartment building in the 7400 block of Rainier Avenue South within 2 minutes of getting a 911 call at 10:35 p.m., said Seattle police spokeswoman Renee Witt. The victim was found in an exterior stairwell with a nonlife threatening gun shot wound to the arm and taken to Harborview Medical Center, she said.
Witnesses told officers that a white Nissan had sped away from the scene, heading north on Rainier Avenue South, Witt said. At 10:48 p.m., a South Precinct officer spotted the vehicle and pulled it over at the intersection of 14th Avenue South and South Main Street, she said. Police questioned five people who were in the car, recovered a handgun from the vehicle and arrested the 15-year-old.
The drive-by shooting is being investigated by the department's gang unit.
