Three people were shot at three different locations in Renton and SeaTac on Thursday.

Renton police arrested a suspect, 32-year old Mamadou Diallo, who is believed to be connected to all three shootings.

The first shooting happened just after 1 p.m. outside a grocery store in Renton along Rainier Avenue.

The owner of the store told KIRO 7 a man came in, used the bathroom and left. He then tried coming back inside but fell at the door. The owner said he thought the man was having a heart attack, but when Renton officers arrived, they discovered the man had been shot multiple times.

The 57-year-old male victim in that shooting suffered critical injuries, police said.

A second shooting happened at around 1:40 p.m. at a Kia car dealership on Southwest Grady Way. Renton police allege Diallo drove into a new part of the dealership’s lot and shot an employee multiple times. The 42-year-old male victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center and has since been released, according to Renton police.

The King County Sheriff’s Office also confirmed a shooting on 160th Street in SeaTac just after 2 p.m. A man with multiple gunshot wounds was taken to Harborview Medical Center, authorities said.

Officers talked to witnesses at the scene who gave them descriptions of the car the suspect was driving. Deputies used a helicopter to track down the gold Dodge Journey.

“They initiated a traffic stop, the individual in the vehicle immediately pulled over and was compliant and was detained without any incident, without any issues,” said King County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Corbett Ford.

Diallo was arrested in Tacoma.

A judge found probable cause for Diallo for three counts of first-degree assault on Friday.

Officials said the shootings appeared to be random and “potentially racially-motivated.” In interviews with detectives, Diallo said numerous times that he did not like “Black people” because “they always killing each other.” All three men Diallo shot are Black.

Charging documents also identify Diallo as Black.

Prosecutors argued that Diallo is a danger to the community and asked for his bail to be set at $5 million. A judge ultimately set bail at $3 million.

God safe Americans

Too bad for the victims.

Gun control is important in The USA

Black man with misplaced priority.

It would have been more convenient and easier for one to want to blame the inventors of find and other weapons for all these killings, but then when you cast your mind back to the first recorded murder in the Bible you'd be forced to have a rethink.

The worst form of hate is self-hate, and then when you begin to fear for your life out of hate from your kind, it gets even scarier. Wetin I dey talk sef....No be we we dey hate and kill each other for this Nigeria every minute of the day?

Abeg make the world end if e want end jare

His first name speaks volumes.

Your hearts no go out this time around. Do not control gun laws, it'll eventually spell doom for you

Effective justice not our stupid system, giving easy bail to criminals and killers.

I remember Wyclef Jean’s song: “Diallo Diallo, you said he reached sir
But he didn't have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir”….


An African, Diallo was the victim in the song, shot 41 times by the police….

I’m sure the police, black people in the US and lots of people would be shocked that a black African shot and wounded three black men because he was angry and frustrated about black on black killings.

This crazy man didn’t even visit popular gang spots to carry out his cowardly assault, he went to shops to attack vulnerable people.

What a coward!!.

Brainwashed ignoramus.
RIP to the victims.

The mindless killer will surely pay for it in the afterlife.

the shooter is an extrimist

from the name he must be a Senegalese living in the US. He hated his own race for killing each other and the best way he think he could save the situation is by killing innocent members of his own race, the man is completely subnormal.

Nice country with good security, come to naija area and see

If it was a white man, Indian, Russian etc that said/did such all hell will have been let loose.i don't know why Africans are always a problem to themselves anywhere they go

Diallo Diallo. Stop taking drugs
