The 49-year-old Lake Ste- vens woman lives In the 400 Block of East Lake Stevens Rd. The woman lives there with the 71-year-old suspect and their relationship is described as platonic. Approximately 10 days ear- lier the two were involved in a domestic violence incident and the suspect was arrested. He had not returned to the home since the incident. The victim sought a protec- tion order but it had yet to be served. At approximately 2:15 p.m. on May 28, the victim was at home with her girlfriend when the suspect returned home. The victim called 911 and was still speaking to the 911 operator when the man en- tered the home and shot her once in the abdomen. The suspect then put the handgun down and walked outside and waited for depu- ties to arrive. He was taken into custody without incident and booked into the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of As- sault 1 domestic violence with a firearm.
