Nov. 15
Weapon on bus. An Edmonds School District bus driver asked for police help after a teenage boy riding the bus shot a fellow student in the leg with a pellet gun. The victim said he didn’t want to press charges.
The driver told officers she was terrified because she didn’t know whether the boy had a real gun. She said he complied with her order to put the gun away. Police released the suspect to the custody of his father and the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office will follow up on the investigation.
Lynnwood police responded to 13 domestic violence calls Nov. 11-13.
