“A 27-year-old Edmonds man who was shot by police after a verbal confrontation was in serious condition Saturday at Harborview Medical Center. Police spokesman Aaron Snell said the man had been walking along a street near Edmonds Elementary School carrying a rifle. His behavior prompted two 911 calls from nearby residents — the first coming in around 7:30 a.m., Snell said. He said officers don’t know of a motive for the man’s actions. ‘We don’t believe he was aiming or shooting the weapon,’ Snell said. The Edmonds officers who responded to the 911 calls issued verbal commands to the man, then fired at him, Snell said.”
