  • Police are searching for the people responsible for a deadly stabbing at one of the city's busiest light rail stations.
    Police said a 37-year-old man was stabbed Saturday night just before 6 p.m. inside the station. He was taken to the hospital where he was declared dead.
    People are on high alert at the Capitol Hill light rail station on Sunday, just a day after a deadly encounter.

    And yet another instance where the public is given zero information about the suspects even though we have eye witnesses. And no surveillance? The reporting has gone down hill. You report the tragedy but offer zero help on how to catch the suspects. Its just a shame.

    I remember a teen girl getting badly beaten at one of the stations. She went to your security, begged him to help her. He didn't, apparently, they were not allowed to intervene, they were there to call the police. If that is still the case, sounds pretty useless. & I do not see that security and safety are a very high priority anywhere in Seattle, for anyone.
