A 14 and 15 year old are now the top suspects in a Tacoma shooting.
TACOMA — We now know the suspects in Wednesday’s shooting in Tacoma that wounded a detective were just 14 and 15 years old.
“There’s something going on that’s influencing our kids to pick up guns, go out and commit crimes,” said Pierce County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Darren Moss. “Between the ages of 13 through 24 to 25 years old that’s the majority of our suspects in our violent cases,” said Sgt. Moss, “It’s more of an eye test of hey man this is another one where we have an 18-year-old victim, this is another one where we have a 15-year-old suspect. another one we have a 19-year-old suspect.”
Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office is also seeing a spike. Earlier this month, four people were shot in an incident police are calling gang-related. Three of them were teenagers, including a 16-year-old who died over the weekend.
