King County Sheriff's Sgt. Ryan Abbot said officers who were serving a probable cause warrant at a home located at 19028 16th Ave NE were confronted by the male suspect with a gun. The SWAT officers shot and killed the suspect, and arrested two others.
Officials say no officers were hurt and one suspect remains outstanding.
"I heard two loud booms and lights and I assumed it was thunder. Then there was a rapid succession of what sounded like gunfire and I heard glass breaking and a woman screaming. When I came out to look there were police cars and paramilitary type trucks," a neighbor told KIRO 7's Michael Spears.
19028 16th Ave NE is located about a mile east of Holyrood Catholic Cemetery and just over two miles north of Hamlin Park.
