NEW: Hundreds of angry Seattle residents showed up for the “Stop the Traffickers, Stop the Bullets” demonstration along Aurora Ave N. late Saturday evening.
Neighbors organized the rally in response to the pimping, gang banging, and gun battles spiraling out of control in this community.
King County Prosecuting Attorney Leesa Manion, City Attorney Erika Evans, and Councilmember Bob Kettle showed up to lend support. But Mayor Katie Wilson was a no-show.
Wilson has been facing enormous criticism for failing this community on public safety.
Especially after she removed makeshift street barricades created by neighbors to prevent drive-by shootings.
Here is the speaking portion of the event in full.
