A man in his 50s was fatally shot in Everett, Washington, on Monday night. The incident occurred near Senator Henry M. Jackson Park, prompting a large police response. Neighbor accounts suggest the shooting took place in an alleyway behind a group of houses.
A man in his 50s was shot and killed in Everett Monday night in a neighborhood near Senator Henry M. Jackson Park . Police say the shots were reported at around 11:30 p.m. and neighbors say they saw the victim on the ground behind a group of houses near 19th Street and Highland Avenue. Some neighbors who have homes connected to a nearby alley told FOX 13 they heard two-to-three shots, which was followed by a massive police response.
Hillary Phouivanhny, who lives near the park, said, 'There was tape all along the road right there and lots of lights,' adding that her son was the first in her family to see police rushing into the neighborhood. She says, 'We didn’t hear any gun. My son didn’t hear anything. Nobody heard anything, and we have five people in the house,' Her home sits more than a block away from where other neighbors believe the shooting happened. Those that live closer to the shooting location told FOX 13 that they sounded as if they were coming from the corner of the back alley, accessible off of 19th. Another neighbor told us off camera that he saw the victim on the ground in an area of the alley. 'It’s unfortunate. It really is,' said Hillary. Many of the neighbors that we talked to who heard the shots said that they thought they were leftover fireworks from the recent New Year's celebrations, until they saw the body and police arrived. Hillary says the park and surrounding area have been the focus of shooting investigations before. 'It’s a nice area. It's just, it's not a nice area on top of it,' said Hillary. Hillary showed FOX 13 pictures of another fatal shooting investigation near the park on November 26, 2023, where she estimated that around 50 rounds were fired in the area of the park as the family hid. 'We have PTSD from it still,' said Hillary. 'We were hiding in the stairwell because we didn’t know where to hide.
