Armed Robbery and Suspect Search in Seattle's Downtown Area

Summary: An armed robbery involving two black male suspects occurred in Seattle's downtown area, specifically near 8th Avenue and Weller Street, with additional references to King Street, Massachusetts Street, Atlantic Street, and East Pike Street. The suspects, one tall and one short, both in their 20s, were reportedly armed with firearms and stole cell phones and a credit card. They were initially seen fleeing on foot, later believed to have entered a silver or light-colored four-door sedan, which was tracked via a stolen cell phone.

The incident posed a high risk to public safety due to the presence of firearms and the suspects' mobility through densely populated urban areas.
