Deputies responded to the location after a 911 call. FOX 13 talked with neighbors in the area.

A nearby resident, Alex Gumina, is actually the HOA president at Lake Boren Townhomes.

"We would say hi, I would see the wife walking her kids to school from time to time, she was super nice…This kind of thing does not happen around here."

What we don't know:

It's not known what led up to the shooting. 

The King County Medical Examiner will determine the identities and cause of death of the people who were killed. 

"It’s shocking, I'm shook. I don’t know what else to say about it. That kind of stuff doesn’t happen around here," said another neighbor. She asked not to be identified. 

The woman works as a domestic violence advocate and says this situation makes her even more motivated to do the work she does.
