MOSES LAKE — Two males were shot at a Moses Lake residence Sunday morning, leaving one dead and one injured.
A statement by the Moses Lake Police Department Sunday evening said that just before 6 a.m., MLPD officers responded to a report of shots fired in the 3000 block of Road H Northeast.
When officers arrived at the residence, they found a 20-year-old male who had been shot multiple times and was unresponsive, according to the statement. Medical aid by the officers was unsuccessful and the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
