Three teenagers arrested in fatal shooting at Seattle homeless camp
Three teenagers were arrested on Monday in connection with a shooting at a Seattle homeless encampment where two people were killed and three wounded, police said.
The teenage boys, aged 13, 16 and 17, were taken into custody at a different homeless encampment and a gun was recovered, Seattle police said.
It was unclear if the teenagers were homeless.
They will be booked into a jail for minors and were facing possible murder charges stemming from the Jan. 26 shootings at a large homeless camp south of downtown Seattle, a police statement said. The notorious camp is known in Seattle as "the Jungle".
