Traffic was backed up for miles on northbound I-5 through Marysville for police activity Saturday morning. All lanes were blocked at milepost 200 for a short time.
“Officers attempted to make a traffic stop about 10 a.m. this morning on a vehicle that we had previously received a watch for,” said Officer Greg Bartell with Marysville Police. “It was believed the male driver was involved in a domestic dispute in Everett.”
As officers attempted to stop him, the suspect got out and shot himself, Bartell said. He is deceased.
馃毃NB I5 at Mp 200, Marysville, will be fully blocked for an ongoing incident with a firearm. Please be patient, do not try to drive through, and avoid the area. Troopers and allied agencies are attempting to secure the scene. Updates will be provided ASAP.
