Washington State Patrol Detectives are looking for witnesses to a drive by shooting that occurred at 4:00 p.m. today northbound on SR 167 between Central Avenue and 208th Street South.

A white Mercury Mountaineer was merging onto NB SR 167 from Central Ave when the passenger in an older dark blue or black 1990's model Honda Accord 4 door fired two shots out of the driver’s side window at the Mountaineer, striking it each time. A third shot was fired from the passenger out the passenger side window.

The occupants of the Honda are believed to be Asian or Hispanic males, approximately 19 years of age.
