Father of Teen killed in CHOP said it’s time to bring in the national guard and dismantle the zone

SEATTLE — A teenager is dead, a second injured and their jeep is riddled with bullets inside the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone, aka CHOP zone.

The latest shooting at the CHOP zone claimed the life of a 16-year-old male, and left a 14-year-old critically injured.

Tonight, the father of another teenager shot and killed there last week says the CHOP zone must go.
