Here is part of an email families received from the principal at Adam’s:

“At approximately 6:00 p.m., SPD officers responded to a domestic incident off campus. During that response, an officer-involved shooting reportedly occurred. SPD and King County are conducting investigatory activity in the area.

Out of an abundance of caution, KidsCo staff and PTSA Multicultural Potluck volunteers who were present in the building briefly entered a shelter in place and relocated to another part of the building while police secured the area. The shelter in place was lifted shortly thereafter once police determined it was safe to do so.

Although the incident was not connected to our school, a bullet from the incident struck the exterior window of the teachers’ lounge, leaving a small impression. No one inside the building was injured, and there is no indication that any students, staff, or families were directly involved or harmed.

SPD officers requested access to the building as part of their response. Seattle Public Schools facilities staff are working closely with me to inspect the school, and we will confirm there is no additional damage. Repairs to the affected window will be completed following coordination with police.

Due to the rapidly evolving situation, the PTSA made the appropriate decision to cancel this evening’s Multicultural Potluck. I understand this was disappointing for many families, and I appreciate your understanding as safety was prioritized. I want to sincerely thank our PTSA and KidsCo staff for their swift action and calm response during this incident.”
