Witnesses Needed To A Shooting On I-5

August 16, 2023

King County: At approximately 9:15am this morning Washington State Patrol (WSP) communications received a 9-1-1 call from witnesses reporting there were two vehicles shooting at each other NB I-5 near S. 188th.

Further callers indicated that a full size black truck and a small black SUV were firing at each other exiting to S. 188th from NB I-5 and this continued when they took the onramp to reenter NB I-5. The black truck was last seen exiting to NB I-405.

A third vehicle that was not involved sustained damage from the gunfire and thankfully no injuries. This driver was contacted after calling 9-1-1.

WSP detectives are seeking any witnesses or anyone that has information on either of the two vehicles or occupants. Please email Detective Hanson at Tim.Hanson@wsp.wa.gov.
