The victim of last night’s shooting in Salkum didn’t survive.
Aid and deputies were called about 8:10 p.m. after a reported dispute between neighbors in which a shot or shots were fired.
Twenty-eight-year-old Travis Shive was transported by ambulance to Providence Centralia Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office last night said detectives were questioning a Salkum man after the incident on the 200 block of Stowell Road. It’s unknown if any arrest has been made.
Lewis County Coroner Warren McLeod said his office was contacted about 9:30 p.m. or 10 o’clock about the death and Shive, a Salkum resident, was transported to the coroner’s office. An autopsy is expected on Tuesday, McLeod said.
