The 36-year-old suspect faces assault and mischief charges after threatening officers. In the Chinatown-International District, a blind man in his 40s suffered leg wounds from shots near 5th Avenue South and South Weller Street yesterday, possibly a small-caliber gun. Hes in serious condition, and police seek tips.

North Seattle saw a two-car crash into an auto parts store on Aurora late Monday, hurting three. On a calmer note, showers return today with breezy winds up to 30 miles per hour along the coast, pushing into Puget Sound by evening commute.
