SEATTLE CENTER PRESSER: Sadly, three people have been shot and killed. Multiple people injured including a toddler. They are expected to survive. One person is in custody and being questioned about the shooting. Another suspect is on the run. The “dignitaries” were Governor Bob Ferguson and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal. Cops say no cameras were up at Seattle Center. Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson says she is reassessing the safety plan in the area. Otherwise, officials say SPD Chief Shon Barnes was out of town. I’m posting the entire presser right here.

🚨Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson loses cool at Monday presser when confronted on why the five-hour delay on communicating details of Seattle Center shooting; city staff abruptly ends presser. Wilson denies that Gov. Ferguson's office delayed Sunday's presser for photo op. Governor Bob Ferguson and Rep Pramila Jayapal attended presser but after city staff abruptly ended presser, didn't contribute to the presser. Still no answer on who actually gave the order to delay communicating details of Seattle Center shooting to the press on Sunday. Also, Wilson appeared to not be aware of City's emergency text blast feature to residents.

HAPPENING NOW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson has lost control of her streets. Parts of Chinatown-ID are packed with drug dealers slinging fentanyl, people are recklessly starting fires on sidewalks, and the black market of stolen goods is thriving. There is no way Wilson has this under control by June when FIFA World Cup games are played in the city. Remind me again what the plan is to address this disaster zone? Mayor Katie B.

NEW: Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson and SPD Chief Shon Barnes are in crisis management mode. This morning, local media eviscerated them for failing to properly update the community about Sunday's Seattle Center mass casualty shooting. The exchanges were so tense, Wilson's handlers cut the press conference short. We didn't even get to hear from Governor Bob Ferguson or Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal. It's like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing at City Hall. WATCH this Q&A.

He and another person exchanged gunfire in the open crowd, according to SPD Chief Barnes. Total number of victims: 7 with a possible 8th. Confirmed killed: 19 y/o man, 44 y/o man, and 56 y/o woman. The second suspect is still on the loose! Possible retaliation risks are a priority per Mayor Wilson.

HAPPENING NOW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson's homelessness strategy is turning into a game of Whack-A-Mole. The MLK Way encampment cleared last month has already come roaring back. There are at least 20 people living here. Open-air drug use is rampant. During her State of the City address on Tuesday, Wilson will say she's building more shelters in the city. But anyone in the outreach world will tell you the mayor has ZERO plan for the "service resistant." In other words, Wilson can build all the shelters she wants. But unless there is a mechanism to force people indoors, the crisis will get worse and the sweeps will continue. So far, we are seeing a repeat of the Bruce Harrell administration. 🧵👇 Seattle Police Department|Mayor Katie B.

AMATEUR HOUR: Seattle cops say they are delaying the press conference here at Seattle Center for “dignitaries.” It’s been almost five hours since this mass shooting and no word from the socialist mayor or police chief. It appears the city is now trying to turn this tragedy into a photo opp. KOMO TV’s Jeremy Harris lays into one of the PR guys.

NEW: Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes is under enormous pressure for failing to be at Sunday night’s Seattle Center press conference. Critics say he should have been there to update the community about the mass shooting. Barnes says he was at a pre-planned conference in Dallas, TX. But earlier this year, Barnes was also unavailable to brief the press after a gang murder in South Seattle. He was also traveling. Critics believe he spends most of his time away from the city on weekends. They want Barnes to stay put and focus on the city. #Seattle

They want the mayor to reinstate Barnes, saying he’s being made the fall guy for her “inexperience.” There is also an undercurrent of race at play. Wilson is white and Barnes is black. The civil rights leaders say Wilson should be doing more to retain black leaders in her majority white administration. Barnes has been under enormous pressure for being out of town during the Seattle Center mass shooting. Barnes is also being scrutinized for his travel outside the city and criticized for his recent confrontation with a reporter. Here is the press conference in FULL. 🧵👇🏽

EXCLUSIVE: On Sunday, it took Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson more than five hours to address the media after a horrific mass shooting in her city. The gunman remains on the loose and there could be a third suspect. In a now viral exchange, Seattle Police spokesperson Brian Pritchard told KOMO TV's Jeremy Harris that the press conference was delayed because the mayor was waiting for "dignitaries" to arrive. Those dignitaries were WA Governor Bob Ferguson and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal. But today, mayor Wilson totally denied that narrative and basically threw Pritchard under the bus. This is either pure incompetence or someone is lying. Maybe both. I asked Pritchard for his thoughts. WATCH.

#EXCLUSIVE: One week ago, Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson took a victory lap during the State of the City address and implied her new approach to housing the homeless was working. Problem is, one of the women allegedly housed is now back on the streets. She claims city workers offered her a mold infested shelter unit inside the Low Income Housing Institute's Interbay Village. There are now calls for audits of all agencies helping the homeless, including the city's own outreach team. Mayor Katie B.
