TONASKET, Wash. — A shooting in Tonasket left two people dead and one person seriously injured, according to Okanogan County Sheriff Tony Hawley.

The Okanogan County Sheriff's Office (OCSO) received a report of a shooting near Cape Labelle Road at approximately 1:05 p.m. on Monday. Officers were told that 61-year-old Scott Pollock was shot in the left hand by his neighbor, according to a press release.
