Street Report

Drug Addicts Contribute to Dangerous Conditions

Horrific scene Sunday morning in Seattle’s Little Saigon neighborhood. Cops say a semi-truck driver hit a man crossing the street at the intersection of 12th Ave S. & S. King St.

Investigators say the driver was not impaired. No one was arrested. This appears to be a tragic accident.

Meanwhile, this area is arguably one of the most dangerous intersections in the city. You have construction going on, drug addicts walking around like zombies, and cars are constantly zooming through the streets.
