(Added: Texted reader photo)
4:27 AM: Thanks for the tips. Police are at the gas station/minimart at 4580 Fauntleroy Way SW trying to arrest a suspect. Radio traffic indicates the person they’re after is an assault suspect; the incident is described as domestic violence. More details as we get them.
4:44 AM: According to audio from the initial dispatch, the victim was described as a “man, bleeding badly, who said he was in a fight with his wife.” The victim has been taken to a hospital.
4:59 AM: They’re still searching for the suspect, now with a K-9 team helping. She is described as a Hispanic woman in her late 30s, about 4’8″, pink sweater, possibly armed with a knife (though the assault was not described nor dispatched as a stabbing).
5:14 AM: The K-9-accompanied search has ranged into the neighborhoods north/northeast of Fauntleroy/Alaska, so if you’re in that area and seeing/hearing police, it’s related to this.
5:48 AM: That search is continuing. Meantime, police have obtained a warrant to search the vehicle in which the suspect and victim are reported to have arrived at the gas station.
5:53 AM: The tracking team has wound up back at the gas station. Meantime, we’re following up with SFD on the victim’s condition when taken to the hospital.
6:04 AM: They’ve finished that search; no one inside. The vehicle was initially described as a pickup truck but subsequent mentions, and at least one nearby resident, say it’s an RV.
6:14 AM: The search is wrapping up for now. We’ll be following up with police too.
