UPDATE: Deadly shooting near White Center Library
6:16 PM: 107th is blocked just east of the White Center Library as deputies investigate a deadly shooting. KCSO says the victim is a 20-tear-old man. No other details yet.
8:29 PM: We checked with KCSO spokesperson Sgt. Ryan Abbott, who says this is all they currently know:
5:20 PM, a deputy was in the area of SW 107 near the 1400 BLK on an unrelated call when he heard multiple gunshots. As he came around the corner on 14 AVE SW he saw a male running away from the scene and a second male lying on the ground. He lost sight of the suspect and put out the last known direction of travel and began life-saving measures on the victim. Medic 1 arrived on scene and continued life-saving measures but the victim died at the scene, a 20 year old male. Witnesses stated the suspect fled in a vehicle, unknown description. Major Crimes is on scene investigating.

More gunfire at 12:45am May 7, same gun it sounds, at least 6 more rounds.
Then 3 more in the distance.
WHY IS THERE NOT A DESCRIPTION OF SUSPECT?? THERE IS A MURDERER ON THE LOOSE AND WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WVAT THAT PERSON LOOKS LIKE SO WE CAN REPORT HIM IF HE’S SEEN

There’s no info on that, sorry. Which often means no witnesses.

This is crazy. It sounds like combat out here. More gunfire at 12:45am May 7, same gun it sounds, at least 6 more rounds.
Then 3 more in the distance.

Gun did not sound the same to me, at least the shots were much more spaced apart. 12:45 indeed… but much closer to 102nd and 10th or 12th. Saw a bunch of cop cars driving around the Steve Cox memorial park area, so they had the right idea as to the location I think.

There were a crowd of on lookers as there were over 18 rounds fired. It was the busiest time of day.
The deputies and others saw the getaway car. There is definitely a description of the killer and they are withholding the info.
I live a few blocks away and I heard the commotion clear as day. There were hundreds of people around the area at the time.

I know. I feel like I am living in a combat zone as well. I heard gunshots again @ 9:49 last night as well. So that makes 2 shootings where someone was injured or killed and one where it was just 3 shots going off. I have video of me walking out the house to go to the car and I stopped at the front door because I heard gunshots, then I heard a car speed away.

Could these shooting be related to the tent city that is developing in the ally behind the vietnamese restaurant at 10439 16th Ave.

That’s blocks away. Do you have some reason to suspect that?
