A Mason County neighbor is speaking out after finding himself at the center of a shocking crime scene that prompted a 24-hour manhunt. According to investigators, Robert Child killed his wife and another man Tuesday night before going on the run.
The deadly shootings happened at a family home in the normally quiet Hoodsport. One of the victims’ trucks remains at the home days after the crime.“I’ve been replaying that in my brain,” Caleb McGill, who lives next door, said. “Haven’t been able to sleep much because of it.” Child is accused of shooting and killing his recently estranged wife, Anna Child, and another man, Jason Hilde. McGill got to the house seconds later and called 911.McGill told KIRO 7 he lived next to Child for three years and considered him a friend. He said Tuesday night, he heard half a dozen gunshots from his bedroom, just feet away from Child’s front door. He recalled dropping to the floor, then grabbing a gun and rushing outside.“I put my weapon down and I said, ‘Rob, what the f are you doing?'” McGill said. “He looked at me and said, with huge eyes, you could tell the adrenaline was pumping, ‘He pointed a gun at me so I had to kill him.’ I said, ‘What are you doing?’ And he drove off.” McGill said he ran to the house and saw Jason Hilde dead in the doorway with a hysterical teenage boy standing over him.McGill said he pulled a teenage boy out of the house and sent him to a neighbor’s home while he waited for deputies to arrive. He shared an image with KIRO 7 of a magazine-fed shotgun sitting near the home’s entrance.Investigators spent the next 24 hours looking for Child and a pair of trucks connected to him. According to Sheriff Ryan Spurling, deputies were tipped off that he was at a gas station near Shelton Wednesday evening and he was arrested without incident. “I think he snapped and I think he’s probably really regretting things today,” McGill said. “I hope he is, anyway. I hope he’s talking to God and trying to figure things out, what he’s going to do next because he’s got some explaining to do.” Child was in court Thursday. He is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and a count of burglary. His bail is set at $5 million.A high-speed chase on I-5 culminated in a crash and arrest of a Burien man, raising concerns about reckless driving.Tiger Woods arrested at crash scene on suspicion of DUI, sheriff says ‘Maybe that was my twin that I don’t have’: Man once deemed mentally unfit now accused of attempted Seattle light rail push A 26-year-old man faces accusations of an attempted Seattle light rail push, raising serious questions about mental fitness and safety.A Mason County neighbor is speaking out after finding himself at the center of a shocking crime scene that prompted a 24-hour manhunt.An Oak Harbor resident has been accused of animal cruelty after a veterinary clinic reported that two of his cats died under"suspicious circumstances."WSECU Community Champion: Chrystal Ortega’s mission to feed Spokane Chrystal Ortega's tireless dedication recently earned her the WSECU Community Champions Award and a $1,000 grant to further the mission.When Shawn Tibbitts opened Tibbitts FernHill, he was just trying to survive.
