Two Charged For Belltown Drive-By

From the PI.com:



A man shot in the neck in a Belltown drive-by shooting over the weekend is unable to speak and is in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center.


Still, Kelvin Owie was able to identify his alleged shooter from a photo montage as he lay in a hospital bed earlier this week. And he also provided Seattle police Detective E. Jason Kasner with a motive for the shooting.


"It was the same guys that broke into my car/wife car in Seattle about two weeks ago," he wrote in a note he handed to Kasner on Monday, court documents say.


On Wednesday, prosecutors charged Farhan Enow Edin, 20, and Abdulahi Yusef Farah, 22, with first-degree assault. Edin, whom Owie identified as the shooter, was also charged with unlawful possession of a firearm.


Prosecutors say Edin has a lengthy criminal record, including convictions for drugs, assault and car theft.
