Police surround Seattle home where person of interest in police shooting may be hiding A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. By Seattle Times staff A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. Police responded to the home at East Yesler Way and 32nd Avenue South where police stopped a woman who was leaving the home. She told them Maurice Clemmons was on the property and bleeding, according to a law enforcement source. The woman told police that someone had dropped Clemmons off at the home. The source also said police had received tips about two other properties they needed to search, in Queen Anne and Renton. At 8:44 p.m., Seattle police received information that the person of interest may be in a Leschi home, according to Seattle police spokesman Jeff Kappel. Police are now trying to confirm the identity of the person inside. Police blocked off the street at East Yesler and 30th Avenue South. Police are telling residents to stay indoors and keep their doors locked.

Yep. That’s where the Incident Command Post is located.
Indeed it would.
I thought maybe something went down since the dispatcher sounded a bit intense.
Good ole’ Miranda. Suspects get warnings. These days you try to get as far as possible into the investigation before the guy clams up on you.
Whether she ID’d him or not, she’s potentially at risk until he’s in custody, so I suspect you won’t find that out until trial.
I just don’t know why a bail amount that is possible to make is set for some crimes, like child rape for example. This wretched creature should have had a bail of $1 million.
Shame and damnation upon the party that paid his bail. It had better not be the same relative that turned him in because that person will likely get the reward money.
Thank you.
These days it seems police don’t call someone a suspect unless they’re in custody or unless it’s absolutely obvious they committed the crime. Probably a smart thing to do because of all the defense lawyers who will use that against police in a variety of ways later on in court. It’s wise to wait. Let witnesses pick him out of a lineup (hopefully a lineup of dead people), then call him a suspect (hopefully, a dead suspect).
Wouldn’t that just be incredible?
I think I’d literally throw up.
That’s the new digitised computer voice the Fire Department’s using. She always sounds alarmed. It’s actually pretty funny when it’s some minor incident.
Sounds like a specialized vehicle from the County just got on scene.
Just heard a call where cop said”....I think we can make do here” And dispatcher said “No, ;et’s not ‘make do’. I have people available.” Clearly they are frazzled tonight.
They’re talking about batteries on that one. I think.
Of interest, for later:
KIRO TV reported that a man came into St Joseph Hospital appearing to be wounded, but left without treatment before officers could arrive.

They should have him on video there.

Me too. So maybe the white pickup was a Buick?
Sounds right. St Joes would be the place he would go.
K. Thanks
Oh, batteries for the radio? I thought I heard “people available.” Oh well.
For awhile before that they were asking about batteries for their radios and asking for people to go get some at a few locations.
Didn't we read the PU was registered to him? Maybe the relative owns the Buick? Am I getting confused now?
It was people available - to go get batteries.
