MARYSVILLE — Two more suspects were identified Friday in a Marysville homicide, where an Arlington man was shot to death during a robbery of his casino winnings.
The man, 30, died at 11:42 p.m. Thursday, two days after he was shot, according to police.
Two suspects — Jeremy Justin Dailey and Jared Allen Evans — were arrested this week for investigation of plotting to rob the man. He had won a stack of about $7,000 in cash at the Quil Ceda Casino in the preceding days, and had shown it to Dailey, according to court papers.
Investigators believe Dailey and Evans dropped off two men Tuesday outside the motel on Beach Avenue, to carry out the robbery.
Police on Friday identified the new suspects as Jorge Nava “Speedy” Martinez, 31, and Jose Antonio “Chi Chi” Nava, 30. One of them is believed to be the shooter.
Nava and Martinez remained at large Friday. They have ties to Everett, Mount Vernon and Bellingham, police said. They’re associated with a white Dodge Durango with Washington license plates BHL1688.
If seen, call 360-363-8300 or dial 911.
