HOMICIDE IN PUYALLUP *UPDATE*

***UPDATE***

Homicide Suspects Arrested by Detectives

– – – – – – – – – –

This week Pierce County Detectives made two arrests in the January 28th murder at 12600 90th Ave E near Rogers High School. Detectives were able to track down a 18-yr-old male suspect and arrest him on April 18th. Yesterday on April 20th they located the second suspect, a 17-yr-old male, who ended up turning himself in to investigators at our precinct.

Detectives believe the suspects setup a meet with the victim to rob him and then shot and killed him before fleeing.

Thanks to the hard work by our Homicide Detectives and Special Investigations Unit we were able to develop probable cause to get warrants, track down and arrest the suspects.
