According to authorities, a girl was taken into custody after a fatal shooting occurred in a home east of Seattle on Monday day.
The shooting occurred in Fall City, Washington, and numerous 911 calls were made around 5 is, King County Sheriff’s Office director Mike Mellis confirmed during a press briefing. Representatives arrived at the scene and instantly detained a youth, while another girl, who had sustained accidents, was transported to a Seattle clinic. Both teens apparently lived in the home, Mellis said.
Upon entering the house, deputies discovered the body of five victims—two individuals and three younger teens. Authorities have not yet made the deceased’s labels public. ” When bodies were discovered, evidently we understand that this is a hugely important violence scene”, Mellis said.
Officials have not yet identified the relationship between the patients and the teenagers, despite the apparent community involvement in the shooting. Millis assured the populace that nothing is a long-term hazard. ” I have no reason to think that there will be any more detention”, he added.
A cousin, Lynne Trowern, told KING-TV that a few and their five children lived in the house, expressing her surprise and anguish:” I’m only in total horror, I keep bursting into tears”.
According to the state Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, the juvenile suspect is being held in King County’s juvenile detention facility on Tuesday or Wednesday and is scheduled to appear in court.
