On Monday, authorities responded to reports of a shooting just before 5 a.m. at a home in Lake Alice Road neighborhood in Fall City, Washington.
The sheriff’s office reported that three children and two adults were killed in the incident. Homicide detectives are currently probing the shooting as being a possible domestic violence event, according to KCSO Public Information Officer Mike Mellis.
“This is a significant event for the neighborhood,” Mellis stated. “And I’d call it a significant event for the region.”
“What they found was a mix of injured and deceased persons,” he added, without clarifying their relationship to one another.
A publicly unidentified juvenile suspect has been taken into custody. If a suspect is younger than 18-years-old, their identity is typically not released to the press, as they are still minors.
Brandyn Hull, a spokeswoman from the King County Sheriff’s Office, added that another teenager has been hospitalized as well.
Mellis noted that since they believe it was a domestic violence incident, the KCSO does not think there is any risk to the public. Additionally, he stated that they do not expect any more arrests in relation to the shooting.
