Shooter attacks Jewish group in Seattle killing one and wounding four others

Seattle Post-Intelligencer:

At least five people were shot - one fatally - this afternoon at the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle by a man a witness said was upset about "what was going on in Israel."

Police spokesman Rich Pruitt said there was one shooter, who was apprehended without incident outside the Jewish Federation Building located on the corner of Third Avenue and Virginia Street. Pruitt said there were at least two victims on the third floor of the building.

Police got reports of shots fired shortly before 4 p.m.

Early reports were that the victims were shot in the stomach.

The alleged shooter was taken away in a patrol car after being handcuffed on the sidewalk outside the building. Pruitt could not immediately say what motive the alleged gunman had.

One witness, who declined to give her name, said a man walked into the Jewish Federation building with a gun, said he was upset about what was going on in Israel, then opened fire. After the shootings, the man said to call 911, the witness said.

It appears from the last paragraph a witness heard his motive. The fact that they have not identified the shooter is a little strange since they have him in custody. Is this just another example of lone wolf terrorism by a Muslim religious bigot? Eventually, the Police will have to identfy the killer and his motive.

Update: The later edition of the P-I story says six people were shot and that the shooter identified himself as a Muslim.
