Seattle police say drugs were involved in a deadly shooting last week in Woodland Park.
“Officers located a vehicle parked and an adult male inside who had been shot several times,” said Seattle Police spokeswoman Renee Witt. “He was transported to Harborview and later died of his injuries.”
Witt says they’ve arrested a 33-year-old man suspected of killing Precious Reed Jr. after a fight broke while the man tried to sell Reed several pounds of marijuana.
The suspect has a long criminal history and could be eligible for a life sentence under the state’s three strike rule.
