FEDERAL WAY, Wash. - Police need help finding the suspect in a fatal stabbing in Federal Way late Saturday night.
Timeline:
A 34-year-old man is dead after police say he was found with a stab wound in an apartment parking lot on SW 330th Street on May 3.
Federal Way police responded to the scene just after 11 p.m. and attempted life-saving measures, but were unsuccessful. The Hispanic Federal Way resident died on scene.
Jose G. Linares Morales
As of Monday, the investigation is ongoing. Police say they have identified a suspect: 37-year-old Jose G. Linares Morales, and believe he and the victim knew each other. Authorities suspect the two got into a dispute about their families.
What they're saying:
"I see in the window a lot of police coming, ambulances, it’s crazy, it’s scary," a neighbor said.
The stabbing comes hours after a 20-year-old man was shot and killed in a Federal Way parking lot. However, in both incidents, officers say the violence were a result of separate arguments between people that knew each other.
What you can do:
Police believe Linares Morales stole the victim's car, a gray 2018 Honda Pilot with Washington plates CLW4096, and drove away. He may be traveling with his young son.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call 911 or call Federal Way police at (253) 835-2121.
Editor's note: Federal Way police issued a correction to their previous report, saying the victim actually died of a stab wound, not gunshots. This story has been updated to include the correct information.
