Another Capitol Hill Stabbing

President's Day started with another spate of violence befalling a Seattle neighborhood. Four people were stabbed in the alley behind Neighbours on Capitol Hill early this morning. One person was stabbed in the back and three others were cut less severely, all of the victims were taken to Harborview. One of the victims injuries are considered life-threatening.

While King 5 is reporting the stabbing occurred after the bars closed, they also report the attack occurred at 1:39 am, which is 20 minutes before Neighbours scheduled closing time. Police believe everyone involved in the attack knew each other, so it does not appear to be another random act of violence. Police are still looking for the suspect, no arrests have been made at this time.

just a note:

most bars here seem to kick people out at ~1:30 / 1:40ish (~2:00 "bar time"). if not closed, they are in the process of closing.

Admitedly, I am more oft a frequenter of diver bars that let you meander out the door when the clock strikes two.
