Courtney O’Keefe with the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office said that when police got to the scene, they found a dead woman as well as an adult man and an adult woman with gunshot wounds. The two injured people were transported to Harborview Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.
The suspect reportedly left the home, and a police pursuit started. He eventually tried to run on foot but was caught by police K-9 units and a police helicopter.
The suspect, a 31-year-old Marysville man, is now in custody. The suspect’s motive is unknown, and it’s unclear if he had any connection to the family.
Marysville Police believe that same man may also be connected to another murder there that happened around 4 a.m. Thursday morning. A 31-year-old man was found by officers responding to a distress call at the 2600 block of 164th Street NE in Marysville. The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
