SEATTLE — A 42-year-old man was arrested after a man and woman were found dead Sunday evening in Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood.
According to the Seattle Police Department, a 911 caller reported two people down in an apartment in the 6100 block of 4th Avenue South around 4:15 p.m.
When officers arrived, they found a 55-year-old woman and a 53-year-old man dead. No cause of death was given, but the SPD said detectives will continue to investigate to “determine the nature of the victims’ injuries.”
The murder investigation is ongoing, but Seattle police said investigators “do not believe this to be a random homicide.”
Seattle police posted an update Monday morning saying a 42-year-old man was arrested in connection to the double homicide investigation and booked into the King County Jail.
SPD later provided an update Monday that the suspect is currently in the hospital for injuries sustained during the double homicide, but that he still is expected to be booked into King County Jail.
No other information about the victims or suspect has been released at this time.
Homicide detectives and members of the SPD’s Crime Scene Investigation Unit responded to the scene Monday evening.
Anyone with information about the incident should call the SPD Violent Crimes Tip Line at (206) 233-5000.
