Durkan, Sawant and Seattle sued for death in CHOP zone
A lawsuit has been filed on behalf of Horace Anderson and the estate of his deceased son, Lorenzo Anderson, a 19-year-old who was shot near the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone.
The lawsuit holds Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan, City Council Member Kshama Sawant and the City of Seattle responsible for the death.

Lorenzo Anderson was shot in the early morning hours of June 20, 2020, on Pine Street, and Seattle medics refused to enter the CHOP zone because Seattle police could not secure the scene.
A bystander took him to Harborview Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The lawsuit claims there are more than 2,400 pages of exhibits that provide evidence showing that actions and inactions by the defendants “were directly responsible for the chaos promoted and encouraged that lead to the wrongful and preventable death of (Lorenzo) Anderson.”
