Shot Himself Before Being Apprehended
After being located in a car in Fresno, police attempted to apprehend the suspect. The suspect continued driving until he reached the intersection of Hamilton and Cedar Avenue. Before the police were able to get him, he shot himself.

Police seized the firearm used, and no one else was hurt.
Woman Rushed to Hospital By Aircraft
The woman who was shot by the suspect who committed suicide needed a hospital. Her injuries were so severe that they required her to be airlifted to an unknown hospital.
She was shot around 7 p.m. in Parking Lot No. 3 at Tachi Palace Casino Resort on Friday night.
Like the suspect, the victim’s name hasn’t been released. The only information we know is that she’s in her 20s.
According to Tachi Palace Casino Resort, the two were in an argument that escalated, leading to the shooting.
“There was a domestic dispute between two individuals that resulted in one individual sustaining a gunshot wound,” the casino said in the statement.
She was the only one injured in this exchange.
“The scene is secure, and the situation is under control,” the statement continued.
As of Friday night, all operations at Tachi Palace Resort Casino were normal, and the King County Sheriff’s office continues to investigate.
