Large police (x6) and fire (x5) response to incident in north Seattle!

On September 10th, 2023, I filmed numerous police and fire units responding to an SOV14 call in Ballard (north Seattle), for two people shot in a tavern. Both suffered wounds to the legs and were transported to Harborview, one by Medic 31 and one by AMR. Police arrested the suspect a short time later.

Great catches!

[@lucaslaughing]

Thank you!

[@WATrafficCamResponses]

Great footage! Those spotlights on the squad car at 0:14 must be new, haven't seen them on very many cars!

[@lucaslaughing]

Thank you! Yeah, the spotlights aren't usually on - I wonder if they hit the button by accident.

[@LiamPattisonPhotography]

Huge response, great catches! Hope both victims heal quickly

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks Liam, I hope so too!

[@FirePhoenixEmergencyVideos]

Awesome shots Lucas! Nothing beats catching multiple PD units in one sitting. But the kinds of calls that warrant responses like this really suck

[@lucaslaughing]

Thank you! Yeah, I feel like that's always the tension with buffing - the best catches tend to come from the worst incidents, and it feels weird to get excited about what is probably a really bad day for someone else...

[@jamesl1013]

Always great coverage man… So glad I got TFO of Seattle. Lived in Ballard for too long and it’s, well… I’ll let y’all fill in the blanks…

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks James! Yeah, it's definitely getting rougher lately ...

[@jeffturkel3344]

Great catch of a tough incident.

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks Jeff!

[@SuperHusky83]

That must have been the entire north pct responding lol

[@lucaslaughing]

Lol, sad but true - probably both second and third watch...

[@JulioDagulio]

May I use your clips for my tributes?

[@lucaslaughing]

Sorry, but I prefer to keep my footage on my channel. Thanks for checking though!

[@charlieharding6623]

Was that at the Waterwheel?

[@lucaslaughing]

No, this was at the Thunderbird - a little ways north and across the street from the Waterwheel.

We're not safe no more here in Seattle

[@lucaslaughing]

I think Seattle is still safer than a lot of cities, but it does seem like this year is worse than most.

[@Tonythelemons]

W shots

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks!

[@SeattleResponses]

Unfortunately, this is becoming a standard in Seattle. (shootings are already standard, but bigger shootings are becoming more common)

[@lucaslaughing]

Yeah, it's not a good trend. Thanks for watching!
