SUNNYSIDE, Wash. -- A 22-year-old Sunnyside man suffered a gunshot wound late Saturday during an exchange of gunfire in a residential area, police said Monday morning.
The victim is identified as Gilberto Garcia Ramos, who suffered a gunshot wound to the upper torso.
He was taken to Sunnyside Community Hospital for treatment and was discharged Monday afternoon.
The other participant in the shooting has not been identified.
Police ultimately executed a search warrant at a North Fourth Street residence near where the shooting occurred, confiscating 74 ounces of marijuana, scales and a loaded shotgun.
City officials also condemned the house for a variety of code violations.
Police spokeswoman Charlotte Hinderlider said police are still investigating and aren't sure whether the shooting was gang-related.
Two people were detained. One, a 31-year-old Sunnyside man, for unrelated warrants. The second man, a 27-year-old Sunnyside resident, is being held for investigation of being a felon in possession of a firearm, possession of a stolen firearm, and possession of marijuana.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call the Sunnyside Police Department at 509-837-6200.
