King County Jail records show 20-year-old Joseph D. Cooley was booked early Monday on a second-degree murder charge and held on $2 million bail.

A suspect has been jailed in last week’s shooting in the
city of Shoreline that killed a 17-year-old girl and
wounded an 18-year-old man.

King County Jail records show 20-year-old Joseph D. Cooley
was booked early Monday on a second-degree murder charge
and held on $2 million bail.

He was charged Friday in the shooting that killed 17-year-
old Tiana Montgomery and wounded 18-year-old Darrold
Edwards early Wednesday in an apartment parking lot.

Sgt. Rodney Chinnick says Montgomery and her 18-year-old
cousin, a student at Shorewood High School, were shot in
and around a car in an apartment complex parking lot near
NW Richmond Beach Road.

They called for help as they were driving to a hospital.
They were met by deputies who rushed them to Harborview
Medical Center in Seattle where Montgomery died.

KIRO-TV reports Edwards has improved to satisfactory
condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
