On a night where anti-Trump protests were happening around the country, tragedy struck near the site of such a demonstration in Seattle.

Shortly before 7 p.m. local time, gunshots were reported at Third Avenue around Pine Street. At the same time, an anti-Trump rally was proceeding down streets just a few miles away. There was no connection between the two events, despite some fevered initial reports to the contrary.
