SEATTLE (AP) - Seattle police responded to reports of an armed person at hospital for military veterans Tuesday but later said a witness was mistaken.
The incident was at the VA Puget Sound Health Care System in the southern part of the city. News footage showed a heavy police presence around the medical complex. About an hour after the initial report police said in a Tweet: “It appears this was a case of mistaken identity on the part of the witness. Officers will be clearing the scene shortly.”
