SEATTLE (AP) — Three people are dead after an early morning shooting in Yakima, Washington, and police are still searching for the suspect. Yakima police Chief Matt Murray said the shooting was reported at a Circle K convenience store about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday, and responding officers found three people dead. Murray said security camera footage and witness reports suggest it was a random shooting and that the male shooter did not appear to have any conflict with the victims. Police said the suspect fled the scene in a car and should be considered armed and dangerous.
