1 man arrested, 2nd man identified in Lynnwood home invasion

LYNNWOOD, Wash. — A man wanted in a Lynnwood home invasion Monday has surrendered to Seattle police.

The 18-year-old was booked into the Snohomish County Jail on charges of first-degree robbery, burglary and unlawful imprisonment after he gave himself up at the Seattle Police Department’s north precinct.

The home invasion occurred Monday at 12:30 p.m. at a trailer park in the 6200 block of 202nd Avenue Southwest when a woman opened the door to her trailer and two men, one wearing a mask and armed with a handgun, forced their way in.

The victim said the men put a pillowcase over her head, bound her wrists with tape and then ransacked her home.

Lynnwood officers said the second suspect, who is still at large, has been identified as 21-year-old Ahmed Shire.

Shire is black, about 5 feet 9 inches tall with a thin build.

Anyone who knows Shire’s whereabouts is asked to call 911. Lynnwood police said anyone who sees Shire should not contact him and assume that he may be armed.
