SEATTLE (AP) - Police are searching for a gunman following a deadly shooting at a bus stop in Seattle’s Wallingford neighborhood Monday night.

KOMO-TV reports just before 10 p.m. two men got off a Metro bus at N. 46th Street and Aurora Avenue North and got into an argument, says Det. Mark Jamieson with Seattle Police.

At one point, one man pulled out a gun and shot the other, then ran off. Officers arrived to find the wounded victim unconscious and performed CPR until medics arrived, but the man was declared dead at the scene.



SPD and King County Sheriff’s deputies searched the area with police dogs but have come up empty.

The victim has only been identified as a man in his 30s. Police are interviewing witnesses including passengers on another Metro bus that arrived at the stop just as the shooting occurred.
