Seattle police are investigating a homicide after a man was found dead Saturday morning at a business in the city’s Lake City neighborhood, authorities said.
Officers responded to the 8500 block of Lake City Way Northeast after employees arriving to open the Growler Guys, a beer garden and restaurant, discovered a deceased man inside around 9 a.m. Saturday, Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes said at the scene.
The man, who police confirmed to be an employee in his early 20s, appeared to have died from gunshot wounds, Barnes said.
Seattle Fire Department personnel pronounced him dead.
Dozens of friends and family members of the young victim spent hours on the scene Saturday, and many were visibly overcome with emotion.
