One of the victims, both male, died after being taken to Harborview Medical Center’s Emergency Department, the report said, citing a hospital spokesperson.
Police earlier said via Twitter that they were investigating the incident.
Harborview Medical Centre spokeswoman Susan Gregg told KIRO 7 television news that one man arrived at about 3:15 a.m. by private vehicle followed by the second man at about 3:30 a.m., who was brought in by Seattle Fire Department medics. The second man who arrived later died from his injuries.
Last week, three people were shot within 48 hours, including a 19-year-old man who died, according to police reports.
City efforts to dismantle the Seattle’s Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone - also known as CHOP – have thus far been thwarted by protesters, who reportedly blocked authorities from reaching the victim who was fatally wounded in last week’s shootings.
