King County Sheriff’s Office officials said the gunshots multiple islanders reported hearing on Thursday afternoon were from an islander shooting targets on their own property.

King County Sheriff’s spokeswoman Cindi West said that the department received reports of the shots around 3:35 p.m. in the area of SW 180th Street and 107th Avenue SW. Deputies responded, she said, and it was found that someone was target shooting on their property, “in an open shoot area.”
