SEATTLE — The Seattle Police Department has released the bodycam footage of officers responding to a fatal shooting in the so-called CHOP zone early Saturday and being swarmed by what they called “a violent crowd” that prevented police from reaching the scene, particularly since they are prohibited from using less lethal options.
Officers responded around 2:30 a.m. to shots fired in Cal Anderson Park, which lies inside an area of several blocks that demonstrators in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood cordoned off and dubbed the Capitol Hill Organized Protest, or CHOP zone.
The shooting inside the protest zone killed a 19-year-old man and left another male with life-threatening injuries, police said in a post on its blotter Saturday.
Police bodycam footage shows officers arriving and moving through the zone with guns drawn as a group of angry protesters yell profanities and approach the officers.

What kind of nation has this chaos made of us?
This must end.
Let them turn on each other like rats and rot there.
Designate it a local insane persons facility and move city hall there.
Police should allow the Chop zone to expand into the Mayors house.
Screw ‘em...let them bleed.
There is only one answer.
Since journalists are being assaulted there and the world press ain’t saying sh!t against it, use drones to collect footage.
It’s still illegal to shoot down drones, idn’t it?
It is a happy party I tell yah in there. For rapists and murderers for sure.
“...What kind of nation has this chaos made of us?...”
What kind of a nation? A nation overflowing WITH LIBERAL MADNESS AND INSANITY that creates situations like this. And ENCOURAGES IT.
They should take over the Commie councilwoman’s $800,000 mansion
Ought to be enough room for all of them to squat.
C’mon, isn’t she down with the struggle???
And that their worldview is greater than 30% of the public and that the media won’t express the full terms of their militancy or worldview or mention Marxism once, we are doomed by despotic globalists who think that they can float above all of the riots and arson.
Doesn’t chop consider themselves an independent country?
So don’t they have medical facilities and police and all of the infrastructure of Modern Life?
Yes I know I’m being flippant but trying to make the point, of these idiots in CHOP declaring themselves independent, but then something happens and they’re crying like little babies to ask the Civilized world to come in and save their asses.
So I’m sure the propaganda news will be that people are dying in that Chop Zone because of inaction or erroneous actions on the part of Seattle First Responders.
These people can go to hell in my personal opinion. They can marinate in the toxic stew that they are brewing in the CHOP zone.
This is so hilarious I have to wonder if it is a troll
but I think it is real

"It's like a block party."
"It's the Summer of Love."
Mayor's actual words.
Strange. I don’t recall block parties needing riot gear.
You are confusing cause & effect. The effect is the chaos. The cause is international communism and anarchists intent on destroying Western Civilization and Capitalism. Pure and simple.
We need to either shut them off from the USA totally and let them have their own little country ...Allow no one in or out...Let them fend for themselves...
OR
Go in, arrest and end this fiasco...PERIOD...
“Thief! Thief” This is like something out of 18th century London.
