A double homicide suspect in Washington state turned himself in to authorities on Sunday following a shooting at a bar that left two people dead and three others injured, according to Fox News.

The incident occurred around 1:30 a.m. at the Alleycat Patio and Lounge located near Sixth Avenue and N Oakes Street in Tacoma, as reported by the Tacoma Police Department. Upon arrival, officers discovered four individuals with gunshot wounds. Tragically, one victim succumbed to their injuries at the scene, while the remaining three were swiftly transported to a nearby hospital for urgent medical care.

Of the surviving victims, two sustained serious injuries, while the third's injuries were deemed non-life-threatening, as per FOX13 Seattle.

Detective William Muse of the Tacoma Police Department stated that the shooting does not appear to have been a random act of violence. It is believed that the suspect had an interaction with one of the victims inside the bar, although details regarding the nature of the interaction or whether an argument took place remain unclear.
