One person has been arrested in connection with a deadly shooting in Seattle's Central District Wednesday night. Mayor Bruce Harrell issued a statement Thursday confirming the loss of D'Vonne Pickett Jr, describing him as "a father, businessman, mentor, and pillar in our Central District community." He noted Pickett's business honoring the legacy of a family member, his service as a youth sports coach and his work mentoring young people to "shape the next generation of leaders in our city." Pickett and his wife owned The Postman, which KING 5 reported on in 2020. In an interview, they shared their excitement about investing into the community with their business, and their love for their roots in the Central District. The Seattle Police Department did not release Pickett's name in their release, but confirmed that witnesses reported a man was shot and killed shortly after 6:30 p.m. near E. Union St. and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Story: https://www.king5.com/article/news/crime/police-investigating-deadly-shooting-seattle-central-district/281-60ae77f1-8b25-444c-8d91-0bf5ec755d35
