3 people found dead at Newcastle home

Newcastle shooting

NEWCASTLE, Wash. — Three people were found dead at a Newcastle home late Thursday night.

While very minimal information has been made available, King County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a call for a shooting at a townhouse on SE 75th Street, off of 129th Place SE. This is just north of the top of Lake Boren.

It’s unclear what led up to the shooting or if these people died from gunshot wounds.

Deputies say there is no concern for public safety.

It’s unknown if deputies are looking for a suspect or if this is a murder-suicide investigation.

It’s also not known how many people were inside the home at the time of the shooting.

The ages of the victims are not known, and the medical examiner will determine a cause of death and identify the victims.

KIRO 7 is working to learn more information.
