A 48-year-old father of six, who was a Lyft driver, was shot and killed in Seattle Sunday night.
Mohamed Kediye worked out of Sea-Tac airport and was fatally shot after picking someone up and driving into Seattle. The shooting happened near the Amazon Spheres.
His friend, Mohamud Adan, says Kediye’s oldest two children were preparing for college this fall and he was raising money to help them buy a car.

The district says the agreement is evidence of democracy in action and an amazing achievement.
In the meantime, students will likely make up their missed week of school on buffer days during the school year, with the possibility of a few extra days added on at the end of the year.
