“He was heartbroken and didn’t know what to do. Jaylen wasn’t a bad kid, he just made a mistake,” his cousin, 16-year-old Heaven Arbuckle said, adding the shooting was over a girl.
Officials at Providence Regional Hospital said that the four victims, two young females and two young males, had arrived via road ambulance with gunshot wounds.
Three had wounds to the head and are in critical condition. The fourth victim, a 14-year-old boy, was transferred to another hospital in Seattle where he is in intensive care in serious condition.
