SEATTLE — Authorities say an investigation has confirmed the man charged with killing five people at a Washington state mall last year killed himself in jail.
The Seattle Times reported that a sheriff’s investigation confirmed a ruling by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner Office that the manner of death on April 16 for Arcan Cetin, 20, was suicide.
The sheriff’s office also said the investigation concluded nothing was suspicious or criminal about his death.
Police say Cetin shot a teenager, a man and three women in the Macy’s department store at Cascade Mall in Burlington, north of Seattle, on Sept. 23. Authorities captured him about 30 hours later near his apartment.
