This is 9 year old Isaiah Johns. He was shot during an apparent road rage incident yesterday in Renton.
His mother shared this photo, told me he is in serious condition tonight.
WSP is still looking for the suspect, vehicle picture attached in thread below.
Here is a picture of the car that WSP is looking for, they’re asking for any info you may have.
Dark blue ford mustang, writing on lower part of windshield, left scene on SW Grady Way toward Carr St.
“The suspect shot into the car on the driver’s side and it ricocheted through and hit his son who was in the passenger seat,” said Arun Vaidyanathan, who works at Brotherton Cadillac where the father of the child stopped for help after driving away from the shooter.
“We got a first aid kit and one of our salespersons who’s trained administered first aid until the medics and the police came.”
On Saturday, KOMO talked to Isaiah’s mother, who gave us permission to share his photo located on a GoFundMe page.
Tiffany Knoll, who works in Renton near where the incident happened, said she is friends with the child’s mother.
“I did reach out,” Knoll said. “The latest is that he is doing better.
He did have some emergency surgery done, but thankfully he should be recovering,” Knoll added, “we’re just all praying for a fast recovery for the little man.”
