A man is wanted for questioning in connection with a shooting, and the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office is asking the public for help locating him.
Kenneth Earl McLeod, 35, entered a home in an unincorporated area of Port Angeles in the early morning hours of Thursday, Jan. 22, with a handgun. McLeod was with an accomplice armed with a shotgun.
“McLeod threatened a 33-year-old man at the home because of an argument over a motorcycle, stating, ‘I told you I was going to kill you,’ before shooting the victim in his right foot, then fleeing the residence,” the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office stated.
Despite suffering a gunshot wound, the victim was transported to St. Joseph’s Medical Center in Tacoma with non-life-threatening injuries.
“McLeod and his unknown accomplice are considered armed and dangerous,” the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office said. “If you see McLeod, do not approach or engage him; call 911.”
