The man, 21, was visiting the home in the 10600 block of 32nd Drive SE. A fight broke out there around 10:45 p.m., according to the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office.
The homeowner, 47, fired a single gunshot that struck the visitor in the chest, according to the sheriff’s office. The Seattle man died at the scene. He was visiting another person who lived at the home.
All four people who were present remained at the scene and cooperated with sheriff’s deputies.
