On Sunday afternoon, in Tumwater, Washington, roughly 60 miles south of Seattle, a man who allegedly attempted to carjack a car outside a Walmart and reportedly shot the driver was shot to death by a citizen in the parking lot.

According to police, they were called because of a report that a drunk driver was driving in the wrong direction near a Toyota dealership. They arrived, but could not locate the vehicle, but then heard that shots had been fired at a roundabout nearby by someone trying to carjack two vehicles. A 16-year-old girl had been shot and wounded; her injuries were not deemed serious.
