Teen wounded in another weekend shooting in Seattle's CHOP area

SEATTLE -- A teen was wounded during a shooting Sunday night in the second night of violence to roil the area around Seattle's CHOP zone.

Medics were called to a shooting just before 11 p.m. that happened near Olive and 12th Avenue, which is just outside the CHOP zone, according to Seattle Fire Department spokesperson David Cuerpo.

As has been the case since the CHOP area has been created, Seattle Fire medics arrived at a pre-determined location just outside the barriers to meet a patient, but were told by Seattle police a few minutes later that the victim had been driven to Harborview Medical Center by private car.

Hospital spokesperson Susan Gregg says a 17-year-old boy did arrive at the hospital with a gun shot wound. She initially said the boy was in serious condition, but later updated Monday morning that the teen had been treated and released and was never formally admitted.
