SEATTLE — A 20-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a deadly North Seattle shooting, according to Seattle police.
Just before 9 a.m. last Saturday, May 9, police responded to the Growler Guys taproom along Lake City Way NE after an employee arrived at work to find their co-worker dead.
The taproom’s owner identified the victim as a beloved 25-year-old staff member, nicknamed Q.
According to Seattle police, the suspect was found and arrested on Monday, May 11. He was booked into the King County Jail for investigation of murder.
SPD is looking into whether this shooting was a robbery. It’s unclear if the victim and suspect knew each other.
