King County prosecutors contend Dietrick, 24, had been in a fight outside the McDonald’s restaurant at Third Avenue and Pine Street shortly before the shooting.

Dietrick allegedly told detectives he went home, armed himself and returned to the restaurant hoping to confront the man he’d been fighting. When he couldn’t find the other man, Dietrick boarded the No. 125 bus to return home.

After the gun went off, Dietrick and a woman who was traveling with him were arrested nearby after the driver stopped the bus. According to charging documents, Dietrick admitted to carrying the gun, which had been reported stolen.

“You need to let me go,” Dietrick allegedly told police. “I didn’t mean for the gun to go off. Look at the hole in the floor of the bus. I wasn’t even aiming it at nobody.”

No, a guy with a long rap sheet. Wasn't even legal for him to own a gun, much less carry.

Must be a victim of NRA/GOP brainwashing.
