A group was robbed at gunpoint on the third floor of the Seattle Central parking garage early last Saturday.

According to emergency radio updates, police were called to the 1600-block Harvard Ave garage just before 4 AM to a report that three people had been held-up by a suspect armed with a Glock-style handgun with a high-capacity “drum magazine.”

A male victim suffered an injury to his head during the hold-up and was treated by Seattle Fire.

The victims told police the suspect had fled in a vehicle.

There were no reported arrests.

The robbery has not been included in the Seattle Police Department’s Significant Incident Reports updates for the East Precinct and came to light through CHS’s routine review of SPD dispatch data. CHS reported here on the changing nature of public information provided by the East Precinct.
