| [DM] At least two people were killed when gunfire broke out at a food festival near the Seattle Space Needle on Sunday night, sending families running for their lives. Rapid gunfire was heard at around 6pm at Seattle Center, which was hosting the annual Bite of Seattle food festival over the weekend. Two people were killed in the rampage, the Seattle Fire Department reported. Five others were also treated at the scene - four of whom were then rushed to a local hospital, including a two-year-old boy, a 23-year-old man and two adult women. One of those women is now in critical condition and is undergoing surgery at Harborview Medical Center, a spokesperson for the hospital said. Two people were in custody in connection with the shooting, according to Seattle's NPR news station. Their identities were not released. A livestreamed video from the scene showed how the festival descended into chaos.
"Yout" Another suspect was believed to have fled the scene, though there is not believed to be an ongoing threat to the public, Acting Police Chief Tyrone Davis said at a late night news conference. Two weapons were also recovered from the scene, leading authorities to believe the two suspects were shooting at each other.
