14-year-old boy dead, four injured in Moses Lake shooting
Mar. 24—A 14-year-old boy is dead and four others injured in a shooting Friday in Moses Lake . No arrests have been made.
The Moses Lake Police Department responded to reports of a shooting in the 500 block of Loop Drive after 9 p.m., the department said in a Facebook post.
Police found five gunshot victims inside a car; the 14-year-old boy was found dead, and a 26-year-old woman, a 17-year-old girl, a 17-year-old boy and a 12-year-old boy were all transported to a local hospital.
They are in stable condition as of Monday, according to Moses Lake police Capt. Mike Williams. Their injuries were not considered life-threatening.
A car believed to be connected to the shooting was found two hours later abandoned on Buell Street in Moses Lake, the Facebook post said. Based on evidence found in the car, police executed a search warrant for a home on the same street. The people who live there are not suspects, the post said.
Williams said he cannot say what was recovered during the search because of the ongoing investigation.
No one has been arrested as of Monday, although Williams said nothing in the investigation leads police to believe the public is in any danger.
The shooting was not gang-related, police believe, but have not disclosed a motive.
No gathering had taken place before the shooting. The people in the car were on their way to pick someone up from a house, Williams said.

Fight between parents breaks out at AR elementary school graduation, reports say
Authorities in Arkansas are investigating after a video posted on social media showed a fight between parents at an elementary school graduation, news outlets report. The video showed the moment several adults got into a physical altercation at Faulk Elementary School in West Memphis, WMC reported. It happened May 28 as parents and families were at the school for a kindergarten graduation, according to WHBQ. The video, shared by News Nation, shows adults standing in a hallway when several men and women begin fighting. Children were also present and can be heard screaming and yelling 'stop,' according to the outlet. West Memphis School District Superintendent Eric Foister said in a Facebook post that the district is 'aware of an incident involving parents that occurred today at Faulk Elementary School.' 'The safety and security of our students, staff, and school campuses remain our top priority. We have zero tolerance for any behavior—by parents, students, staff, or visitors—that disrupts the learning environment or threatens the wellbeing of anyone on school grounds,' Foister said. Foister told WHBQ the district has its own cameras and has additional video showing the fight. He said the names of those involved have been handed over to law enforcement and authorities are investigating. 'You come into our buildings and you put the safety and well-being of our students and staff in jeopardy? I'm going to hold you to the fullest accountability I can working with our local law enforcement. I'm going to press any and all charges that I can,' he told the news outlet. Foister said in the Facebook post that these type of actions are 'unacceptable and will not be tolerated.' When this happens, it sends a message to kids 'that they can do the same thing and it's a bad influence and they are not handling themselves as an adult,' Eric Thompson, a West Memphis resident, told News Nation. West Memphis is about a 10-mile drive west from Memphis, Tennessee.
