Seaton J. Baker, a 59-year-old White man, was killed on June 11, 2017, at his apartment complex on 73rd Place NE in Marysville, Washington. The Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office determined Baker’s death was a homicide from multiple gunshot wounds. He was struck eight times; one shot to the heart likely caused him to fall and seven additional shots hit him between the abdomen and chin while he was on the ground. An empty handgun magazine was found on his chest.

Witnesses say a man later identified as 59-year-old Wayne Alpert had been acting strangely earlier that day and had an altercation on a Community Transit bus where he pointed a gun at a passenger. About 30 minutes later Alpert was seen in Baker’s apartment parking lot. Baker and a friend asked who Alpert was there to see, and Baker went downstairs to tell him to leave. Witnesses reported hearing a child say he had a gun, then gunshots. Police found Alpert nearby with a gun and he was taken into custody and held on bail.

Does anyone have information about Baker’s movements that evening or saw the interaction in the parking lot?
