EVERETT — Someone drove by Madison Elementary School Friday afternoon and fired a BB gun at a school bus.
There were no injuries, and there have been no arrests, Everett police Sgt. Boyd Bryant said.
The incident occurred at 2:30 p.m. as buses waited in front of the school for students.
Joyce Stewart, Madison principal, said students were kept inside the school and delayed from catching the bus for about eight minutes.
A bus driver was on the otherwise empty bus at the time and reported hearing a popping sound, Stewart said.
Lynnwood
Two hurt in scuffle: Two men involved in a fight were injured when one was shot and the other beaten, and both remained hospitalized Friday, police said.
The altercation occurred at 10 p.m. Thursday in the 15000 block of 35th Avenue W. in the Lynnwood area, Snohomish County sheriff’s spokeswoman Jan Jorgensen said.
A man in his 20s was shot in the shoulder, and a male in his late teens suffered a serious head injury, she said. The man lives at the apartment and the teen used to live there, she said.
The man was taken to Providence Everett Medical Center’s Colby Campus, where he was in satisfactory condition, Jorgensen said. The teen was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. His condition was unavailable Friday evening. Neither injury appeared to be life-threatening, she said.
The teen apparently tried to enter the home through a window, and a fight ensued with the man who lives there now, she said.
The incident remains under investigation.
Monroe
Murder charge: A Snohomish man was charged Friday with second-degree murder in connection with a Jan. 12 shooting in Monroe.
Delbert Royal Shelley, 68, shot Loren Lowman, 38, of Monroe, apparently while in the midst of a drug binge, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Cindy Larsen said in Superior Court papers.
Shelley had been at the Monroe home for the much of the day using drugs and was told to leave. He refused and Lowman offered to show him the door.
The victim was shot three times, including one bullet that went through his heart, according to court papers.
Shelley is jailed in lieu of $100,00 bail.
