King County Sheriff's officials say no arrests have
been made after two people were shot in Burien.
One of them was killed.
As police interview witnesses,
FOX 13's Dan Griffin is talking with neighbors.
Some say there have been issues leading up to the gunfire.
This stretch of 2nd Avenue Southwest has
been the talk of the neighborhood
as sheriff's investigators try to piece together what led
to deadly shots being fired early Friday morning.
This is weird. I didn't see this coming.
For Yavi Del Rio, this Burien neighborhood is mostly a place of peace.
It's very calm. It's usually people walking around with dogs,
and I see kids over there just playing on their bikes.
But not now. Our King County Sheriff's Office 911 center received
a couple 911 calls of a possible shooting.
Burien police and King County Sheriff's deputies swarmed the area,
finding a man dead near Southwest 130th and 2nd Avenue Southwest.
A short time later, they were flagged down and found another man
who'd left the area after he was shot. He's expected to survive.
Very disturbing, I would say.
Some neighbors didn't want to go on camera,
but shared concerns of ongoing issues with drug activity in the area.
Now, major crimes detectives are on their street.
Investigators haven't shared details
of what they believe led to the violence
or how the men who were shot may know each other.
It's a little scary. It's a little scary, yeah.
Now, some neighbors say this is an unusual situation,
but others say there has been a history of trouble on this block.
Either way, they say they'd just like for all of this to calm down.
