A 43-year-old Auburn man shot and injured a 33-year-old Shelton man during a reported road rage incident early Wednesday morning, June 16 on Kent’s East Hill.<\/p>\n

Officers were dispatched at about 7:07 a.m. to the 27000 block of 124th Avenue Southeast<\/a>, just south of SE Kent Kangley Road, in response to a shooting, according to Kent Police. While in route, officers were advised that the shooter and the man shot had each called 911 and were both still at the scene.<\/p>\n

Officers found the shooter rendering medical aid to the injured man. Puget Sound Fire personnel took over life-saving efforts.<\/p>\n

Puget Sound Fire reported this morning that it worked with King County Medic One and Airlift Northwest to transport the critically injured man to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.<\/p>\n

The shooter told police that an altercation began as a road rage incident and progressed when the Shelton man reportedly broke his vehicle’s window and attempted to enter his vehicle, so he shot him. The man is cooperating with detectives.<\/p>\n

Police also are interviewing several witnesses who called 911 to report the incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
