TONASKET, Wash. - Okanogan County deputies are investigating a shooting in Tonasket that killed two people and injured another.

The sheriff's office said they received reports of a shooting at Cape Labelle Road around 1:05 p.m. Monday. A caller told authorities that 61-year-old Scott Pollock had been shot in the hand by his neighbor, and was being taken to North Valley Hospital.

Deputies met Pollock at the hospital, where they noticed a gunshot wound on his left arm. Pollock told deputies he and his wife went to his neighbor's house—the Smiths—to talk about a construction project they were helping with. Pollock said it escalated into an argument, and he and 26-year-old Raymond Smith exchanged gunfire.
