Bellevue Police: Man walking dog suspected in Crossroads Park shooting Sunday

A 20-year-old man was released from Harborview Medical Center after being treated for two gunshot wounds, according to police.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — A 20-year-old man shot twice during an altercation at a Bellevue park Sunday afternoon has been released from Harborview Medical Center

Investigators still want to speak to a man linked to Sunday's shooting at Crossroads Park, though they have narrowed down their search and have executed a search warrant for his car and apartment.

“The man who had fired the gun didn’t stick around so we have no idea what circumstances surrounded the confrontation,” said Major Travess Forbush of the Bellevue Police Department.

According to witnesses, the suspected shooter was walking a dog in the park when he was confronted by two younger men around 2:30 p.m. Sunday near the intersection of NE 8th St. and 164th Ave. NE

Something — investigators don’t know what — led one man to shoot another.

“We’re unsure what happened prior to the confrontation or the circumstances that surrounded it so we need his side of the story,” Forbush said.
