Four people were shot after an apparent domestic dispute Friday afternoon in Kelso, the Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office reported.
Around 3:30 p.m., Cowlitz 911 received a report of a shooting at a residence in the 1800 block of West Side Highway in Kelso.
Sheriff deputies arrived on the scene to discover that three people associated with the resident had been shot.
A fourth person was identified to be a suspect in the shooting after arriving at St. John Medical Center with a gunshot wound.
That person, a juvenile male, received medical treatment at the hospital and then was booked into Cowlitz County Juvenile Detention on three counts of first-degree assault and drive-by shooting.
None of the injuries sustained in the incident are believed to be life-threatening, the sheriff’s office said.
Deputies reported that while a child exchange took place at the residence, a group of subjects that arrived in a vehicle had a dispute with people in the house, then shots were fired.
Detectives obtained a search warrant to process the scene and talked with multiple subjects involved in the incident. The investigation is ongoing.
