ABERDEEN, Wash. — A suspect wanted for a shooting in Shelton earlier this month has been arrested following a multi-agency investigation.
According to the Mason County Sheriff’s Office, the 24-year-old was accused in a shooting outside a home on E. Walnut St. in Shelton, off E. Capitol Hill Road, on Nov. 4.
The suspect was on the run for several days, and the sheriff’s office put out a wanted poster with his photo and information. He went by “Monster” and had a Monster Energy logo tattoo on his face.
During the investigation, detectives learned the suspect was believed to be hiding in a home on West Second Street in Aberdeen, which is about 50 miles away.
On Nov. 7, with help from the Aberdeen Police Department’s Special Response Team, Mason County law enforcement took the suspect into custody.
KIRO 7 is not naming him because he has not yet been officially charged and is not on the run.
A woman was also arrested and booked for first-degree rendering criminal assistance, supposedly for hiding the suspect.
The sheriff’s office didn’t specify details of the Nov. 4 shooting, but the suspect was booked on a homicide charge.
