In January of 2025, officers responded to the report of a shooting in the 200 blk Andover Park W. Two individual were struck by gunfire during a gun battle which left one of the victims paralyzed and the other seriously injured.

Major Crimes Unit (MCU) detectives were able to locate the vehicle utilizing the Flock system and noted the presence of bullet holes in the back window of the vehicle. The driver was identified after MCU served search warrants for the vehicle and phone records which ultimately led to referring charges for two juvenile males from Kent and SeaTac related to the shooting.

☑️ The main suspect pleaded guilty to Unlawful Possession of a Firearm, Assault 3rd Degree and Unlawful Discharge of a Firearm

☑️ A second suspect pleaded guilty to Unlawful Possession of a Firearm.

In addition to these convictions, MCU detectives recovered five firearms including several with Glock switches that convert a Glock pistol to fully-automatic. These firearms were removed by MCU detectives from the streets and took them out of the hands of those seeking to harm others.
