"The first responders were running into the building, but when they brought out the young man, the young boy and then the mother came out. She was not happy. She was punching her fists and said, ‘Whoever killed my son, I’m going to find you,’" Leslie Milton Jr., a witness, told KIRO. 

Seattle police clarified that the sole victim was a man. It is currently unclear what the motive was or how the suspect knew the victim. 

A manhunt is currently underway for the suspect, who police believe they have identified.
