A shooting involving a Snohomish County sheriff's deputy that left one man in the hospital is under investigation.
A City of Arlington spokesperson said it started when a 34-year-old Lynnwood man texted a friend to say he was going to harm himself.
Deputies allegedly found the man's truck at the winter road closure gate on the Mountain Loop Highway. After making contact, the deputy fired multiple shots at the man.
The man was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. His condition is not immediately known.
Detectives found multiple edged weapons at the scene.
A deputy is now on administrative leave.
The Snohomish County Multiple Agency Response Team (SMART) is investigating the circumstances of the shooting.
