The FBI is assisting the investigation into the shooting of a Sikh man in suburban Seattle by a man who allegedly told him to "go back to your own country." "This is a top priority investigation, and we are doing everything possible to identify and arrest the suspect," Thomas said in an email, adding that the city of about 120,000 should "be vigilant." "It is our belief and our opinion based upon the opinion of my investigators that our victim is absolutely credible and this incident did occur exactly as he described,” Chief Thomas told Q13Fox. "This kind of incident shakes up the whole community," he said, adding that about 50,000 members of the faith live in Washington state. In 2012, a man shot and killed six Sikh worshippers and wounded four others at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee before killing himself.
