Police identify suspect in fatal Bellevue shooting

BELLEVUE, Wash. — Police are looking for a 19-year-old man who has been identified as a suspect in the fatal Bellevue club shooting.

Bellevue police said they have obtained a warrant for the arrest of 19-year-old Ja'mari Alexander-Alan Jones.

Around 1:09 a.m. Monday, a 30-year-old man died after being shot at the Munchbar at 505 Bellevue Way.   The victim was identified by friends as DeShawn Milliken.

A background check on Jones said he was convicted of manslaughter.

When Jones was 15-years-old,  he and two friends beat and robbed the Tuba Man, Ed McMichael, who would sit outside Seattle sporting events. McMichael died from his injuries.

Police describe Jones as 5-feet 8-inches tall and 140 pounds. He drives a white Nissan Maxima with Washington plate AHZ1672.

Bellevue police said Jones could be armed and dangerous, and the public should not attempt to contact him.

Anyone who sees Jones is urged to call 911.
