Lynnwood authorities are actively seeking multiple suspects involved in a serious incident that escalated to gunfire in a Target parking lot. The event occurred on Sunday evening when police were investigating a theft and observed a stolen Hyundai deliberately targeting two teenagers. The vehicle struck a 15-year-old boy, resulting in minor injuries before fleeing. Officers initiated a pursuit that led onto the south ramp of Interstate 5, where they attempted to stop the vehicle using a PIT maneuver. The suspects exited the car and fled on foot, firing shots at the police, who returned fire; fortunately, no officers were injured.

Lynnwood police are currently searching for three suspects, who are believed to have been picked up by another vehicle shortly after the chase. The department is appealing to the public for any information that could help identify the suspects. Tips can be directed to Detective Russ Satarov at the Lynnwood Police Department.
