PUYALLUP, Wash. (AP) — Police say a woman was shot by Puyallup police and her husband was found dead inside their home. The Seattle Times reports police said on Monday night the woman fired multiple shots at officers, who returned fire. Police say the man’s parents had called police because they hadn’t heard from him. Police say Puyallup officers went to the home for a welfare check. Police say the woman “would not respond to officers” and relatives told police the woman claimed her husband was asleep. A Tactical Response Team involving officers from Pierce County agencies was called and police say “after a brief conversation” the gunfire exchange occurred. Police haven’t said how the man died.
