Summary
Two Spokane County deputies—Mason Acheson and Parker Perry—were fatally shot after entering a home near Spangle on Nov. 3 to rescue possible hostages during a domestic violence response.
A woman had called 911 saying she had been shot, and deputies learned the suspect had an active felony warrant and possible access to more weapons before SWAT moved in around 3:15 p.m.
Gunfire from inside the house struck both deputies as they forced entry; teammates returned fire, pulled them to cover and rushed them to a hospital after highways were closed for medical transport.
Ryan Larsen, 37, was later found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, and the medical examiner also identified two other victims in the home as Suzanne Larsen, 72, and Rebecca Larsen, 45.
Perry died after remaining on life support for organ donation, while Washington officials lowered flags and the sheriff’s office opened a fund for funeral costs and family support.
