Burien Police are investigating a possible domestic violence shooting that took place in the early morning hours of October 23rd.
Police were dispatched to the View Ridge Villa Park Apartments on Southwest 124th Street in Burien after gunfire was reported in the area just after 4:30 a.m. on the Thursday morning. Upon arriving on the scene, officers report that they located the apartment where the gunfire had come from and found a “large number of people” in the apartment, two of which had gunshot wounds. The two victims were immediately transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with non-life-threatening injuries where they remain in stable condition.
No weapons were found on the scene but early reports suggest that the suspect may have been living in the apartment but is now at large.
While no information about the shooting suspect has been released, police confirm that they know the identity of the suspect and are now pursing bringing him in. No information about what lead up to the shooting has been made public at this time.
