Everett Police Spokesperson Officer Chris Hawley confirmed for MyEverettNews.com the following.
Just before 10:45 PM Friday night Sno911 received a call of an attempted robbery at a convenience store in the 4000 block of Hoyt in central Everett.
The caller advised the alleged suspect had a weapon, possibly a hatchet and the caller told Sno911 they were armed and shots were fired.
The suspect with the hatchet had fled in a dark colored car.
About 15 minutes later Sno911 received a call from neighbors in the 3200 block of Nassau (near Providence Pacific Campus) that a woman was asking for help with a person who had been shot.
Officers and Medics arrived and found a person in a dark colored car who was suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. That person was taken by Medic Unit to Providence Colby Campus.
As of this writing the circumstances around the alleged attempted robbery and shots fired were still under investigation.
No word on the extent of injuries to the person who had been shot.
Given the long Holiday weekend we don’t expect any additional information until Tuesday.
We will update as information is confirmed.
