SEATTLE — The Seattle Police Department (SPD) says a 20-year-old driver reported that a group of people in a minivan pointed multiple guns at them early Wednesday morning.
The driver told police that at around 3:08 a.m., a white van, possibly a Dodge, pulled alongside them near the off-ramp to Dexter Avenue toward Denny Way.
Two people inside the van allegedly pointed guns at the driver at a stoplight, SPD said.
The driver tried to get away, even ran a red light, but the van followed for a time before continuing along Denny Way.
Seattle PD says officers found the van and arrested five people.
In total, officers arrested three boys and a girl aged 14, 15, and two 17-year-olds who are facing charges of assault and unlawful possession of a firearm. The teens were booked into The Judge Patricia H. Clark Children and Family Justice Center.
An 18-year-old man was also arrested and booked into the King County Jail, facing assault charges, according to SPD.
