Video, audio, and still images recorded by security and surveillance devices between 7:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 11, 2017, at King Street Station in Seattle, Washington, in the walkway near the southern upper landing of stairs and elevators (that which connects the station platform to 4th Avenue on one side and the football stadium parking lot on the other, on the walls of which are affixed transit agency sign boards and advertisements), where uniformed U.S. Department of Homeland Security police were observing rail passengers who were departing the station.
I am a new public disclosure officer for SDOT. I apologize for the delay in responding to your request. I was informed that SDOT does not own the area mentioned in the request, thus we don't have any traffic cameras in that area and cannot provide any responsive records. Thank you for your patience and again, I apologize for the delay. Your request is now closed.
