Suspect in tribal shooting stopped

on ferry dock

A 25-year-old Arlington man was detained on the Edmonds Ferry Dock Sunday night on suspicion of shooting at three members of the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe earlier that evening.

No one was harmed in the reported shooting, which took place outside a home on Little Boston Road on the tribal reservation.

Investigating officers and deputies found two .38 caliber bullet casings at the scene of the shooting.

The man suspected of the assault with a deadly weapon is not a tribal member, according to a press release by Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office.

According to witnesses he was driving a newer, black Cadillac with tinted windows and chrome wheels. It was reported he was driving with his wife and her son.

Upon investigating the incident, deputies believed he was heading back to his home in Snohomish County. Edmonds Police were notified and detained the man after locating the black Cadillac on the ferry dock.

A motive for the shooting hasn’t yet been determined. The man is held at the Snohomish County Jail while authorities investigate the incident. Anyone with information about the incident can contact Detective Ray Stroble at (360) 337-5614.

Those wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound at (800) 222-TIPS.
