FEDERAL WAY, Wash. — A man turned himself in after a shooting in Federal Way left two men dead and one in critical condition.

On Friday around 11:30 p.m., officers responded to reports of a shooting at the Twin Lakes Safeway at 2109 SW 336th Street. When officers got there, they found three men that were shot. All of them were Pacific Islanders in their 20s. Two men were in a parked car and the other was nearby. The two men in the car were dead and the third was taken to Harborview Medical Center with critical injuries, according to the Federal Way Police Department.



Officers said it looked like another car had pulled up to the men’s car in the parking lot, some sort of argument happened, and then someone from the other car shot at the men. The shooter then left the scene.

FPD detectives processed the scene, looked for witnesses, and asked for surveillance video.
