This morning at 10:48am, a mom and grandmother were crossing 23rd when a black ford focus lost control, hit their 18 month old baby's stroller, and dragged it with the baby across the street, where it crashed into a home's retaining wall.
Construction workers at a concrete job across the street saw the whole thing happen and rushed over to pull the baby out from under the car. The workers couldn't see any obvious signs of trauma to the baby in spite of the violent nature of the crash. The baby was reportedly taken to harborview, where he will be kep over night for observation. Police report that the 47 year-old driver will be cited for the incident.

I work in Sodo and I see this graffiti everyday. I think that some of it is definitely art, but most is an eyesore. I guess its a problem in every city. I think the Seattle could do better though. Do you think its art? Do you want it in your neighborhood? on your house or business?

Neigbhors in the CD were shocked to hear a truck slam into the house next door this morning around 6:30 am. A passing bicyclist saw the truck come screaming east on E. Columbia, take a hard right in the middle of the block, and tear down a driveway and into the back corner of the next house.
The driver reportedly walked away and disappeared into the neighborhood before police arrived. Evidently the truck was reported stolen earlier in the day. |
