Washington Self-Defense: Suspected home intruder dies after Bonney Lake shooting :: 09/01/2021
Update (Sept. 1, 1:58 p.m.): A 46-year-old man who deputies suspect was a home intruder died Tuesday night after being shot at a home in Bonney Lake.
The man was shot Tuesday afternoon by the homeowner’s son, Pierce County Sheriff’s Department Detective Alex Richards said. He said the suspected intruder entered the home, and an altercation between the man and the 31-year-old son ensued.
The homeowner’s son shot the suspected intruder, Richards said. The man was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died.
The homeowner wasn’t at the residence at the time of the shooting, Richards said. He said the son was interviewed by investigators who determined the shooting was likely self-defense. He was not booked into jail.
Deputies aren’t certain why the suspected intruder entered the home. Richards said the investigation is ongoing.
Initial post (Aug. 31, 2:30 p.m.): A Bonney Lake man called 911 Tuesday morning to tell police he shot an intruder inside his home. The man shot was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Pierce County sheriff’s deputies responded about 11:10 a.m. to the 3200 block of 214th Avenue East near Bonney Lake after a 911 caller reported hearing gunshots coming from a neighbor’s house, according to posts on the department’s Facebook page.
Minutes later, another person called 911 and said he had shot an intruder inside his home, according to the post.
At the scene, deputies found a man inside the house with a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital.
Detectives are working to determine what led up to the shooting. No arrests have been made.
