Evidence collected by officers suggests that two guns were used in the shooting.
Witness accounts describe the suspect as a man wearing a black hoodie, black sweats and a mask. The suspect vehicle is described as a 2000–2007 white Chevrolet Colorado 4-door with custom black and silver rims, a hardshell white truck bed cover and a white decal on the windshield, and tinted rear windows.
Edmonds police have released images and surveillance video of the suspect's truck.
"We don't know what led up to this. We don't know if there was some sort of beef between these groups. We don't know if it was happenstance and so there's information that we're working through to try to figure out the why," said Edmonds Police Commander Joshua McClure.
Anyone who sees the suspect vehicle is urged to not approach it and instead call 911 immediately.
