Columbia Citizens

Yes - heard them too. I live behind the CC park and it is really hard to know where/what direction noises are coming from - so I didn't call either. Also waited for sirens but heard nothing.

Heard the same thing but sounded closer to Rainier & Orcas. Same thing happened about a week ago, without knowing where they came from or any additional info I had not enough details to call 911 other than to say "gunshots, somewhere, no more info sorry".

Actually, even vague directional info helps. 911 will triangulate the location based on information from multiple callers.

My wife called in both of the middle-of-the-night incidents in the past week, and was told by the 911 operator each time that there had been multiple calls. Both times she thought it was coming from 39th & Pearl (right next to Rainier), and one of these was corroborated by a friend who lives at that intersection.

That area (and surrounding intersections — 39th & Hudson, Hudson & Rainier) are full of drug activity and occasionally prostitution. I'm sick of it and want it to stop. So do many of my neighbors. What do we do next? Any suggestions?

Neighborhood patrols? I'm only half joking.

Allure salon/barber shop on just south of the corner of Rainier and S Findlay is full of bullet holes, turns out this was much closer to my home (1/2 block) than I thought……

I guess the competition among salons in the hood has stepped up!

Ask 911 operators for the incident number, if you want to ensure your report was filed.
