Multiple people were shot at a Seattle hotspot on Sunday night.
Rapid gunfire was heard at around 6pm at Seattle Center, which was hosting the Bite of Seattle food festival over the weekend, the Seattle Times reports.
'I heard bang, bang, bang and I heard yelling, straight yelling,' one witness described to KING 5.
Early reports suggest there were at least six victims, including possibly a child.
Kayla Carris, 22, was sitting outside the Armory when the shooting occurred, and people started rushing to get inside.
'Everyone was just throwing stuff and running,' she told the Seattle Times. 'Like everyone.'
Videos shared online showed authorities leading one man away in handcuffs.
Police have now locked down the area as the investigation continues, and the Monorail has been shut down for the rest of the night.
