Teen in custody after 5 found dead in shooting at home in Washington state, police say.

[K.I.T.T.]

Law enforcement officials found five people killed in a shooting inside a home southeast of Seattle on Monday morning and took a teenager into custody, police said.

Several people called 911 around 5 a.m. to report a shooting in Fall City, Washington, King County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Mike Mellis said at a media briefing Monday afternoon. Arriving deputies immediately took one teen into custody while another teenager who had been hurt was taken to a Seattle hospital, Mellis said. Both teens live at the house, Mellis said. Deputies entering the home found the bodies of five people, he said. Two were adults and three were described by Mellis as young teenagers. No names have been released yet.

“Once bodies were discovered, clearly we understand that this is a hugely significant crime scene,” he said.

Mellis said the shooting appears to involve members of a family, but added that they didn't yet know how they were related. He also said there was no ongoing threat to the community.

“I have no reason to think that there will be any additional arrests,” he said.

The teen in custody was booked into King County’s juvenile detention facility, according to Mellis. The teen will appear in court for a first hearing on Tuesday or Wednesday, a spokesperson for the county Prosecuting Attorney’s Office said in an email.

He almost killed his entire immediate family. Probably just another case of disturbed child whose parents were probably too drunk or high to care.

At least he kept it in the family instead of releasing his rage against classmates.

Kids ain't kids anymore....

He will miss those home cooked meals the first time he gets served cat food or roast urine dinner on his extended vacation upstate.

How do you know he was getting home-cooked meals? Life must have been miserable for this kid to do this shit.

I don't. I would take a microwaved gas station hot dog over anything I got in jail. Young people do really fucked up things in today's day and age without ever expressing any real reason for doing it.

Maybe he was listening to rap “music” or his parents were liberals.

FALL CITY, Wash. — The two adults killed in the Fall City quintuple homicide were identified Tuesday.

Parents Mark and Sarah Humiston were among the five people killed inside a home on Lake Alice Road Southeast around 5 a.m. Monday. The three other victims were their children, who were juveniles.

The suspect in the killings was the couple's 15-year-old son. KING 5 is not naming the suspect as he is a juvenile and has not yet been charged. He also has no prior criminal history.

What we know about the victims
Mark Humiston was an electrical engineer at Hargis Engineers. A member of the company released a statement about his passing that reads:

"We are blindsided and saddened by the tragic events that have led to the loss of a respected colleague, mentor, and friend, as well as the loss of immediate family members. Mark’s leadership and vision were integral within our firm, and he will be greatly missed. Our thoughts are with his surviving family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time."

Sarah Humiston appears to have been a registered nurse. Her nursing license expired at the end of 2022.

A young girl survived the attack and remains in the hospital in satisfactory condition.

The family of seven lived together in the Fall City home. According to a neighbor, Mark and Sarah Humiston also homeschooled their children. Neighbors told KING 5 that while they were homeschooled, the children were very active in the community and were well-known.

King County Councilmember Sarah Perry issued a statement Monday saying five family members out of seven were tragically killed.

"My heart aches for the lives lost and all who are struggling to make sense of this loss right now,” Perry wrote.

Community members gathered at Fall City United Methodist Church Tuesday evening to honor the five victims.

"The loss of this family, taken so cruelly and senselessly, has left us heartbroken, devastated, and struggling to understand how such pain could exist in this world," Pastor Carrie Bland said.

Public voter registratio records indicate that the parents were DEMOCRATS.

Gee, why am I not surprised...

Both probably accurate, yeah.

"The kids were very active in the community and well known"....

That's the key point here.... even though these parents tried to home school their children, the children were still exposed to fags, trannies and niggers...

What is this idiotic nonsense you're mumbling about? Are you just making shit up for the hell of it?

Today, the jails/prison system use "chefs" hired by KBR/Halliburton, and you're served a green "mystery" meat. Sadly, I know these things.
