Yakima, Washington – On Tuesday, authorities reported that a suspect in the random killing of three people at a convenience store in Yakima, Washington, was located after he borrowed a stranger’s cell phone to confess to his mother.
The suspect, 21-year-old Jarid Haddock, subsequently shot and killed himself as officers approached. Police had initially surrounded Haddock’s family home but he was not there.
