Multiple Shootings Keep Kennewick Police Busy Searching for Suspects
Kennewick Police are searching for suspects related to a pair of shootings the last 24 hours or so.
WHAT LED TO FIRST SHOOTING?
Thursday, Oct. 28th, around 8:45PM Officers arrived at a place well-known already to law enforcement, the 600 block of North Tweedt. This area has seen several shootings, including a fatal incident involving a woman less than two years ago. In that case, from 2019, a man fatally shot his girlfriend before dumping her body in the street.
They found a 27-year-old woman who had been shot at least once, and Officers say it was not a random incident. They believe it stemmed from a domestic violence situation.

It's presumed those two injuries are related. Anyone who may have an information about these incidents is urged to call (509)-628-0333. All leads can be confidential.
