Renton police said their investigation revealed that the victim and two other 17-year-olds were walking toward a store in the 600 block of Grady Way to return a handgun-style BB gun when the shooter, a 51-year-old man, got out of his car to confront the group.
Shortly after, there was an altercation that turned physical, and the 51-year-old allegedly shot the 17-year-old multiple times, police said. King County Sheriff's Office deputies were conducting a training exercise in the same parking lot at the time of the altercation and overheard the shooting, according to Renton police.
Deputies responded to the incident within seconds and attempted to provide life-saving measures, but the 17-year-old died at the scene, according to Renton police. Police quickly arrested the 51-year-old man without incident and he was taken into custody, where he is being held in the King County Jail on $2 million bail.
