Fourth suspect arrested in Mount Vernon shooting death | News
MOUNT VERNON — A fourth suspect in the Aug. 1 shooting death of a Mount Vernon man was arrested Monday afternoon in Kennewick.
The U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Task Force, in conjunction with the Benton County Sheriff’s Office, arrested the man at 2:30 p.m. in the 3300 block of West Fourth Street, Mount Vernon Police Lt. Chris Cammock said.
He is one of four people arrested in connection with the death of 38-year-old Jason Boyes.
The man was arrested without incident and will be held on a second-degree murder charge, Cammock said.
The others being held in connection with Boyes’ death are Isaac Manuel Carrasco Jr., 21; Hayden John Allen Picaman, 19; and Angel Lopez-Rueda, 18. All pleaded not guilty Aug. 10 to one count each of second-degree murder.
Carrasco and Picaman are both being held on $1 million bond. Lopez-Rueda is being held on $500,000.
Court records show that Boyes was watching TV at his apartment in the 2300 block of Kulshan View Drive with his girlfriend about 1:50 a.m. Aug. 1 when three men reportedly kicked in the front door, yelled at Boyes, shot him, then ran from the residence.
Boyes died at the scene.
Carrasco and Lopez-Rueda were arrested by Mount Vernon police later that day — Carrasco at a residence in Marysville and Lopez-Rueda at a residence in the 1300 block of North 18th Street in Mount Vernon.
Picaman was arrested days later.
