SEATTLE -- Seattle police have arrested a second suspect in the shooting that killed a performer and wounded two other men at the Chop Suey nightclub.
Police said a SWAT team stakeout resulted in the arrest of an 18-year-old man Sunday night outside his parents' home. He was jailed for investigation of assault. Roger A. Labranche, 25, was arrested by officers responding to the shooting early Sunday and booked into jail for investigation of assault, police said. All three victims were men in their 20s. One died at a hospital and police say one had life-threatening injuries. The third was treated and released. Chop Suey's online calendar shows that patrons had gathered Saturday night to see music acts Young Soprano, Fatal Lucciauno, No Clue, Dividenz and Anonimous. A dispute erupted during the performance and shots were fired. It is unknown if any of the victims were targeted, police said. Investigators from the Seattle Police Department's homicide, crime scene and gang units also responded to the club. |
