概要

Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Friday, January 30th, 2026.

We're starting this morning with a major development in a case that's been weighing on our city for years. A King County jury has ordered Seattle to pay more than thirty million dollars over the fatal shooting of sixteen year old Antonio Mays Jr. at the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone back in 2020. The jury found the city negligent in its emergency response after Mays was shot in the head near the protest zone. According to court documents, first responders wouldn't enter the area, so witnesses tried bringing him to get medical help by private vehicle. It took about twenty four minutes before they connected with paramedics in a parking lot. The jury determined that delay contributed to his death. Seattle will pay four million to Mays' estate and twenty six million to his father, Antonio Mays Sr. The city's attorney office says they're considering their legal options, but acknowledges this remains a tragedy for our community.

On the education front, Seattle Public Schools is launching new protocols for how staff respond if immigration officers are spotted near school property. This comes after six south Seattle schools went into shelter in place last week following unfounded rumors of ICE activity nearby. School staff never actually saw any immigration officers despite the reports. The new guidelines will have staff ask any federal agents to remain in public areas like parking lots rather than entering school buildings, and only school leaders can grant permission for them to access other areas.

Several local organizations and businesses are participating in a National Shutdown today aimed at drawing attention to immigration enforcement concerns. More than a thousand organizations across forty six states are taking part. In West Seattle, businesses like Pegasus Book Exchange and Meeples Games are closed in support. Others like Easy Street Records and Thunder Road Guitars are staying open but donating portions of their sales to local immigrant rights organizations. Explorer West Middle School and the Fauntleroy Children's Center are also closed for the day.

Looking at the weather, we're expecting sunny skies with a high around seventeen degrees Celsius, or about sixty three degrees Fahrenheit, with light northwesterly winds. It's a nice day to get outside if you're not participating in today's shutdown activities.

As we head into the weekend, conditions remain mild with a chance of rain developing by Sunday.
