FEDERAL WAY, Wash. (AP) - Authorities have identified a woman shot to death Saturday south of Seattle.
The Seattle Times reports (https://goo.gl/8EsVXZ ) she was identified as 33-year-old Tabitha Apling.
Federal Way Police say the woman was found dead in an apartment. A 46-year-old suspect, who was reportedly her estranged boyfriend, was found inside the same apartment with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was taken to a Seattle hospital in critical condition.
The suspect’s mother told police she saw Apling arguing with her son when he pulled a gun, the two struggled and the gun fired.
The woman told police she later fled with her two young grandchildren.
Police have forwarded the case to prosecutors for possible charges.
