Two people were injured and sent to a hospital after a shooting in Tacoma last weekend. Four days later, one of the victims, a juvenile, died at the hospital from injuries suffered.

According to the Tacoma Police Department (TPD), officers were sent to a local hospital just after 10 p.m. April 12 after staff reported that two victims arrived with gunshot wounds. The shooting occurred on Portland Avenue, between E. 43rd Street and E. 44th Street. The second victim injured in the shooting, an adult man, was in stable enough condition to drive both him and the critically injured juvenile to the hospital.

“Over the following four days, the juvenile male died as a result of his injuries,” TPD confirmed in a news release via social media. “At this time, no arrests have been made.”

Investigation ongoing for weekend Tacoma shooting

Both detectives and crime scene technicians are actively investigating the case.

If anyone has any additional information regarding the Tacoma shooting, they are encouraged to contact TPD or submit an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers.
