Description
Court documents say there was no interaction between a suspect and the victims of a Belltown shooting that killed a pregnant woman and her child.
The suspect waived his right to appear in court on Wednesday. A judge found probable cause to hold him for first-degree murder, first-degree assault and second-degree unlawful possession of a firearm. The King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office expects to file charges on or before Friday.
Multiple people called 911 around 11 a.m. on Tuesday to report the shooting at Fourth Avenue and Lenora Street. Callers said a suspect had run up to a white car and shot into the driver's side, and that an injured man was lying on the street. Multiple callers were able to provide a description of the suspect to 911 dispatch.
The man and another victim inside the car were rushed to Harborview Medical Center for treatment. The other victim, identified as 34-year-old Eina Kwon, was pregnant. Kwon was rushed into surgery and her baby was emergently delivered. Kwon died from her injuries, which included gunshot wounds to the chest and head. Her baby lived for a short time but also died.
The other victim was treated for their injuries and later released.
