Everett man, 18, injured in brawl at Silver Lake

EVERETT – An Everett man was hurt Saturday night in what police believe was a fight involving a group of teenagers at Silver Lake.

The injured man, 18, was treated at the scene and declined to be taken to a hospital by ambulance, Everett police Sgt. Robert Goetz said.

Police were dispatched to the area about 6:15 p.m. to investigate a fight including more than a dozen teenagers, he said. When officers arrived, only the injured man could be located.

Witnesses said two cars were seen driving away from the area. Several young men in their late teens or early 20s were in the cars, he said.

Police have no evidence the fight was gang-related, Goetz said. Anyone with information is asked to call Everett police at 425-257-8450.
