"Seattle Tragedy, Fire, and Community Resilience: Local News Roundup"
Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Saturday, September twentieth.
We start with breaking news in our city that has shaken the region. Authorities believe they have found the remains of Travis Decker, the man suspected in the tragic killings of his three daughters in Chelan County. The body was discovered less than a mile from the initial crime scene. Forensic testing is underway, and law enforcement is now shifting their focus to supporting affected families and the wider community.
In West Seattle, fire crews responded late last night to a blaze on the corner of 20th and Henderson. The fire began in a portable toilet, spread to a parked pickup truck, and then extended into a nearby apartment building. Thankfully, no injuries were reported, and two units were damaged, but everyone made it out safely. Investigators have deemed the cause undetermined at this time.
Seattle police are investigating several concerning incidents over the past 24 hours. There was a deadly crash involving a pedestrian yesterday morning downtown, and a fatal shooting in Capitol Hill late Thursday night. In Renton, a fourth suspect has now been arrested in connection with a hate crime assault on a transgender woman earlier this week. The suspect was located after a citywide effort, and officials say the victim is now receiving care and support.
In lighter city news, Seattle Parks announced they are now closing gates at Don Armeni and Golden Gardens boat ramps at eleven thirty each night instead of returning to all-hours access. This follows a summer filled with increased ranger patrols, a focus on safety, and ongoing outreach against littering and off-leash dog issues in our parks.
Turning to weather, we are waking up to a crisp morning with temperatures in the mid-sixties around Alki. The forecast calls for mostly cloudy skies and little chance of rain, making it a comfortable day for outdoor plans. Winds from the south-southeast will keep things fresh near the waterfront. Looking ahead, expect mild conditions throughout the weekend, with temperatures hovering between the high fifties and mid-sixties.
If you are heading through I-90 eastbound today or in the coming weeks, City Hall wants listeners to brace for ongoing delays as restoration crews continue work on the East Channel Bridge. Plan accordingly for traffic backups.
The local job market remains resilient. Unemployment sits below five percent and several companies, including Waymo, are actively hiring as they prepare to launch their robotaxi service in Seattle, offering new opportunities for tech and customer service roles.
Real estate has softened slightly, with median home prices downtown holding steady near nine hundred thousand dollars. Competitive listings in Ballard and West Seattle continue to draw buyer interest, especially with the fall market underway.
For culture lovers, tonight brings the West Seattle Wine Walk to The Junction, filling the streets with conversation and music. Downtown, the “Walk Don’t Run” event transforms parks and plazas with performances and public art, breathing new energy into our cityscape.
Sports fans can cheer the Seattle U Redhawks volleyball team, who just completed non-conference play against Montana, and high school football delivered another close win for Garfield High last night.
One feel-good story comes from Bellevue, where a local family is celebrating medical breakthroughs that have brought new hope for their son thanks to a clinical trial at Seattle Children's. It's a reminder of the innovative spirit and compassion that define our region.
We're keeping a careful eye on public safety alerts, with additional patrols planned in popular nightlife areas this weekend and extra traffic cameras now active along Delridge Avenue.
