At about 6:05 a.m., officers responded to reports of a person down and bleeding near 4th Avenue South and South Massachusetts Street. When they arrived, they found a man in a nearby parking lot with multiple gunshot wounds. Seattle Fire Department crews arrived shortly after and pronounced the man dead at the scene.

The new season of “South Park” launched amid the tensions between Comedy Central’s parent Paramount and the Trump White House. It also arrived after the show’s co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone scored a massive $1.5-billion five-year deal with Paramount for the streaming rights, which previously belonged to HBO Max.
