SEATAC - The suspect in a deadly shooting at a Friday night party was a good friend of the man he killed, and it appears the shooting was accidental, police said Saturday.

But the gunman remains at large, and deputies still want to talk to him, said King County Sheriff's Office spokesman John Urquhart.

Police were called to the shooting scene, in the 2600 block of S. 130th Place in SeaTac, at about 9:30 p.m. Friday.

There they found a victim who had been shot in the head during a party at the residence.

The victim died at the scene, and the gunman fled before officers arrived.

The victim's name was not released. A description of the suspect was not available.
