CNN —The suspect in a shooting that left three people dead in Washington state killed himself hours later after he borrowed a stranger’s phone, called his mom and made “incriminating statements, including, ‘I killed those people,’” the Yakima police chief said Tuesday. The “presumed homicide suspect” in Yakima had been identified as Jarid Haddock, 21, of Yakima County, by police on Facebook. “He then walked across the street to the Circle K,” Murray said. “And I have to really thank her again because she was very courageous in getting us there.”Officers responded within minutes to find the suspect had fatally shot himself, Murray said. The FBI’s Seattle Field Office was aware of the shooting and had been in contact with Yakima Police, agency spokesperson Steve Bernd told CNN.
