Teen taken into custody after five family members shot dead in Washington home

A teenager was taken into custody following a deadly shooting that left five people dead inside a home southeast of Seattle on Monday morning, according to officials.
The shooting occurred in

Fall City

, Washington, and multiple 911 calls were made around 5 am,

King County Sheriff’s Office

spokesperson Mike Mellis confirmed during a media briefing. Deputies arrived at the scene and immediately detained a teen, while another teenager, who had sustained injuries, was transported to a Seattle hospital.

Both teens reportedly lived in the home, Mellis said.
Upon entering the residence, deputies discovered the bodies of five victims—two adults and three young teenagers. Authorities have not yet released the names of the deceased. "Once bodies were discovered, clearly we understand that this is a hugely significant crime scene," Mellis said.
While the shooting appears to involve family members, officials have not determined how the victims and the teens are related. Mellis reassured the community that there is no ongoing threat. “I have no reason to think that there will be any additional arrests,” he added.

A neighbor, Lynne Trowern, told KING-TV that a couple and their five children lived in the house, expressing her shock and grief: "I’m just in total shock, I keep bursting into tears."
The teen suspect is being held at King County’s

juvenile detention

facility and is expected to make a court appearance on Tuesday or Wednesday, according to the county Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
