KINGSTON, Wash. — The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office is investigating after a woman was found dead at a home in Kingston Thursday morning.
Deputies say a woman was found dead on Virginia Avenue Northeast, which is across the sound from Carkeek Park in north Seattle.
According to deputies, the woman had a protection order against her estranged husband. How the woman died was not made available.
Deputies said there were three underage children in the home at the time, one of whom called 911 after the shooting.
It does not appear that the children were harmed.
The man left the home and was located a short distance from the crime scene. Deputies said he resisted before being arrested.
The area was closed off while deputies investigated the crime scene.
The evidence was referred to the Kitsap County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for review and to decide what charges the suspect will face.
The man is expected to appear in Kitsap County Superior Court on Friday, Feb. 28.
