On June 5, 2017, a domestic dispute in a West Spokane apartment ended with 22-year-old Emmitt Palmer shot and killed. The argument involved Palmer and his ex-girlfriend, who also lived in the unit. After she left and called her brother, Tyler Clark, a struggle was heard over the phone and then gunfire.

Officers found Palmer with gunshot wounds to the head and neck; the Spokane County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide. Clark, then 24, was at the scene, taken into custody, and during interviews admitted firing the gun, saying Palmer had him in a leg-lock and that the weapon discharged while they were pulling on it. He was charged with second-degree murder and held on $500,000 bond.

About a month later prosecutors dismissed the charge without prejudice citing the need for further investigation, and Clark was released in early July 2017. Does anyone have information about Palmer, the apartment on South Westcliff Place, or the investigation that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
