SEATTLE (AP) — Police say they have no motive and only a vague description of a suspect in a shooting that wounded three people early Monday outside a nightclub in downtown Seattle.

Three people were treated at Harborview Medical Center for non-life threatening injuries: a man was shot in the leg and groin, a man was grazed on the neck, and a woman shot in the jaw.

Police say they appeared to be bystanders who didn't see who shot them.

Windows in stores and parked cars were broken and police found casings from three different caliber guns.

"Article: Swine Flu detected in downtown Seattle office building, employees who work in this office building should not go to work tomorrow. However office building surrounding this building should be fine."

Downtown!? Where? All of downtown must be dangrous. STAY AWAY FROM DOWNTOWN!! What a public disservice shoddy reporting is. How about a description of the perps too, including skin color!

FWIW, the place in question, the only place of entertainment in the 1900 block of 1st Ave. S (besides Krispy Kreme, but that's another kind of entertainment - lol) is a place called Kolbeh...used to be a Persian restaurant, now a fairly ambiguous place, not sure what qualifies as a "night club". It's website is http://www.kolbehpersianrestaurant.com/index.html The Yelp reviews aren't exactly stellar...and some say that it's name is really Astoria, is Armenian, and they've just never changed signs. They remove the tables, charge a cover for the 10 pm entertainment of music and belly dancing, it seems. I found all that in about 10 minutes after I heard it was in the 1900 block of 1st Ave. S...not at all hard to do. The problem may have been that the shooting occurred out back of the place, not IN the place, so maybe the newspeople decided to leave the business out of it.

I agree. What club and where? More info about this might bring forth some witnesses. And, aren't witnesses what the police need to find the shooter?

exactly....this is an awful article......instead of spreading the fear campaign all over town, how about telling your readers what club or the relative location. more ambiguous articles like this and i'll be reading the websites of your competitors....get with the program!

This isn't exactly a great article. Could you maybe, just maybe, let us know the name of the "night club", and it's exact location?
