KREM said the sheriff's office has now named Deputies Mason Acheson and Parker Perry and that both were killed. Thursday's Spokesman-Review still had one of them on life support.

Named by the sheriff's office on Friday, on KREM and on KIRO 7, and identified in court records on Thursday while one deputy was still on life support, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same naming. A self-inflicted gunshot in the medical examiner's Thursday report, on Alexandra Duggan, and a self-inflicted gunshot the Washington State Patrol said it believed, on Thomas Clouse, and other deputies returning fire and killing the suspect, on the Seattle Times, are not the same death. The 18800 block, the 18700 block, and 18819 S. Smythe Road are not the same address. The children are not named.

KREM, by Shannon Moudy, published at 12:36 p.m. PST on November 6, 2026, and updated at 4:56 p.m. PST, reported the Spokane County Sheriff's Office has now identified two deputies killed responding to a domestic violence shooting Tuesday in Spangle as Deputy Mason Acheson and Deputy Parker Perry. It says they were shot while trying to rescue potential hostages at a home in the 18800 block S. Smythe Road, after a woman ran to a neighboring home to report her brother shot her. A quotation from the sheriff's office on that same page says Deputy Perry and his K-9 partner Brego responded to the call in the 18700 block of S. Smythe Road on November 3, 2026. The 18800 block, in that lede, and the 18700 block, in that quotation, are not the same address. KIRO 7, by Ania Keenan, time-stamped November 6, 2026, at 2:11 p.m. PST, reported the sheriff's office released the names of the two deputies killed this week, Deputy Mason Acheson and Deputy Parker Perry, and that they headed to a home near Spangle Tuesday afternoon after a woman showed up at a neighbor's house with a gunshot wound. Near Spangle, on KIRO 7, is not a block number. The Seattle Times, by Mike Carter, in a story dated Nov. 6, 2026, at 1:42 p.m. with no zone on that clock, reported the sheriff's office on Friday identified the deputies as Parker Perry and Mason Acheson, that Acheson died early Wednesday at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, and that Perry, an organ donor, died later after being on life support, according to the office's social media post. The Spokesman-Review, by Alexandra Duggan, dated Nov. 5, 2026, and updated Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026, at 10:11 p.m. with no zone, reported the two deputies were identified in court records as Parker Perry and Mason Acheson, that one of the deputies died early Wednesday morning at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, and that the other remains on life support and is not likely to survive, and that he is an organ donor, the sheriff's office said in a news release. Remains on life support, on that Thursday story, and died later, on Friday's Seattle Times account, are not the same status. Died early Wednesday morning, on Duggan, and died early Wednesday, on the Seattle Times, are not the same clock, and the Thursday story does not say which named deputy died that morning. The Seattle Times assigns the early Wednesday death to Acheson and the later death to Perry. Not likely to survive, on the Nov. 5 story, and not expected to survive, already in this file from Duggan's Nov. 4 death story, are not the same medical line. KREM says Deputy Perry and his family have chosen to donate his organs, and that Deputy Perry is survived by his wife, two children, and a third child soon to join their family. It says Deputy Mason Acheson is survived by his wife and two children. KIRO 7 says that after Perry was gravely injured and not expected to survive, Perry and his family chose to have his organs donated, that Deputy Perry was survived by his wife, two children, and a third child soon to join their family, and that Acheson is survived by his wife and two children. Is survived, for Perry on KREM, and was survived, for Perry on KIRO 7, are not the same tense. The Seattle Times says Perry is survived by his pregnant wife and two children, and that Acheson is survived by his wife and two children. A pregnant wife and two children, on the Seattle Times, and a wife, two children, and a third child soon to join their family, on KREM and on KIRO 7, are not the same family line. Duggan's Nov. 5 story says both have young children. The children are not named here.

Who killed Ryan Larsen is not one account. Duggan's Nov. 5 story reported a Washington State Patrol release said Larsen had barricaded himself in the home, and that he later died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, according to a Thursday report from the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office. The Spokesman-Review, by Thomas Clouse, dated Nov. 5, 2026, and updated Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026, at 10:11 p.m. with no zone, reported that according to records he died from a gunshot wound to the head, that the Washington State Patrol earlier on Thursday said the suspect is believed to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, and that the medical examiner listed Ryan Larsen's manner of death as suicide. Self-inflicted, as the medical examiner's Thursday report, on Duggan, and self-inflicted, as what the patrol said it believed, on Clouse, with the examiner listing the manner as suicide, are not the same attribution. Both are the Spokesman-Review on Nov. 5. The Seattle Times reported that while approaching the home the team was met with gunfire and both deputies were struck, and that other deputies returned fire, killing the suspect. It reported the medical examiner's office said he died from a gunshot wound to the head. Killing the suspect, on that Friday account of the sheriff's release, and a manner listed as suicide, on Clouse's account of the medical examiner, are not the same death. Has not been disclosed, already in this file from Duggan's Nov. 4 identification story, is not either of those Friday and Thursday sentences. Clouse reported the medical examiner on Thursday named 72-year-old Suzanne Larsen, Ryan Larsen's mother, who died of a gunshot to the head, and 45-year-old Rebecca Larsen, his sister, who died of gunshot wounds and blunt-force injuries, and that the manner for both was homicide. Duggan's Nov. 5 story spells it blunt force injuries, with no hyphen. The Seattle Times reported the medical examiner identified Suzanne Larsen, 72, and 45-year-old Rebecca Larsen, and that both had been shot in the head. Shot in the head, for both, on the Seattle Times, and gunshot wounds and blunt-force injuries, for Rebecca, on Clouse, are not the same cause. 37-year-old, with a hyphen, on Clouse, and 37-year old, with a space, on the Seattle Times, are not the same spelling. Clouse's story names the sister who called 911. Her age is not on that page. She is not named here. The address is still not one address. Duggan's Nov. 5 story and the Seattle Times put the home at 18819 S. Smythe Road. Clouse puts the call in the 18800 block of S. Smythe Road. KREM's lede says the 18800 block. KREM's quotation about Brego says the 18700 block. 18819, the 18800 block, and the 18700 block are not the same address. The battalion is not one battalion. Duggan reported Acheson is a trained sniper and sergeant with the Washington Army National Guard's 3rd Battalion, 161st Infantry Regiment, and that he joined the sheriff's office in 2022 from the Washington State Patrol as a firearms instructor, according to a sheriff's office Facebook post. KREM quotes the sheriff's office that Acheson earned the rank of Sergeant, enlisted in 2011, served in Poland in 2021-2022, and was assigned to the 81st Brigade's 1-161st Infantry Battalion, and that he was commissioned on July 17, 2022. The same KREM story quotes the office that Perry, a Captain and Military Intelligence Officer, was also assigned to the 81st Brigade's 1-161st Infantry Battalion. KIRO 7 prints that battalion on Perry and does not print it on Acheson. It says Acheson was commissioned in July of 2022 after eight years with the Washington State Patrol. July 17, 2022, on KREM, and July of 2022, on KIRO 7, and joined in 2022, on Duggan, are not the same date. The 3rd Battalion, 161st Infantry Regiment, on Duggan, and the 81st Brigade's 1-161st Infantry Battalion, on KREM, are not the same unit. KREM says Perry was commissioned in May of 2020. KIRO 7 says he began in May 2020. The Seattle Times says he joined in 2020. Duggan says he has been with the sheriff's office for almost seven years, according to his LinkedIn page, and that he was a K9 officer. May of 2020, and almost seven years, are not the same tenure line. K9, on Duggan, and K-9 partner Brego, on KREM and on KIRO 7, are not the same spelling, and the Seattle Times page fetched here does not print the dog's name. The Seattle Times reported Gov. Bob Ferguson ordered state facilities to lower flags to half-staff until the close of business Monday, Nov. 9. KREM quoted a National Guard statement that its hearts are with their loved ones, especially their young families. The children are not named here. Friday's names are the identification. They are not a finding that closes the patrol's use-of-force investigation already described in this file.

The Spokesman-Review, by Alexandra Duggan, in a story dated Nov. 4, 2026, and updated at 9:31 p.m., with no zone on that clock, reported a Spokane County Sheriff's deputy shot in Spangle during a domestic violence call Tuesday died in the hospital overnight, the sheriff's office said in a news release Wednesday. It reported another deputy also shot is on life support and not expected to survive, and that he is an organ donor. It reported the fallen deputy is survived by his wife and children, and that neither deputy has been identified. KHQ, by Colette Buck and Thomas Metcalf, dated Nov. 4, 2026, with an update stamped Nov. 4 at 3:09 p.m. and no zone, reported one of the critically injured deputies died Tuesday night and the second is not expected to survive. Died in the hospital overnight, on the Spokesman-Review, and died Tuesday night, on that KHQ update, are not the same time line. That 3:09 p.m. update does not say life support. A second KHQ story, by Briana Henderson, Meridith Depping, and Thomas Metcalf, with an update stamped November 4, 2026, at 3:13 p.m. and no zone, reported one deputy is dead and the other is on life support but not expected to survive, and that the second deputy is surrounded by family and is an organ donor. On life support and not expected to survive, on the Spokesman-Review, on life support but not expected to survive, on that 3:13 p.m. update, and not expected to survive with no life-support line, on the 3:09 p.m. update, are not the same medical line. KREM, by Shannon Moudy, published 3:13 p.m. PST November 4, 2026, and updated 9:17 a.m. PST November 5, 2026, quoted the sheriff's office that one of the deputies who was critically injured "has lost his valiant fight and succumbed to his injuries last night" and "is survived by his wife and two children." It quoted that the second deputy "remains on life support in critical condition, surrounded by his family," is not expected to survive, and that as an organ donor, arrangements are being considered and he will continue to serve others with the gift of life. Wife and children, on the Spokesman-Review's account of the release, and wife and two children, in the sentences KREM quoted, are not the same. Last night, on KREM, overnight, on the Spokesman-Review, and Tuesday night, on KHQ, are not the same words. KREM reported the sheriff's office will release the names at a later time. Will release the names at a later time, and neither deputy has been identified, are not the same status sentence. FOX 13 Seattle, by Jim Jensen and the FOX 13 Seattle Digital Team, published November 4, 2026, at 6:52 a.m. PST, with no update clock on the page, reported one deputy had died from his injuries in the hospital and the second remains on life support in critical condition but is not expected to survive. It reported both deputies leave behind young families, each with two young children, and that the names have not been publicly released. KHQ's deputy-dead story quoted Sheriff John Nowels that both have two very young children each. The Spokesman-Review's Nov. 3 story quoted him that both have very young families. Each with two young children, on FOX 13 Seattle, two very young children each, on that KHQ quotation, very young families, on the Nov. 3 story, and wife and two children for the deputy who died, in the KREM quotation, are not the same family line. The children are not named here. Duggan's identification story, updated at 9:47 p.m. with no zone, says another deputy was injured and is not expected to survive. It does not say life support. Injured and not expected to survive, on that story, and on life support, on her death story, are not the same medical line.

The Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story, by Nick Gibson, Thomas Clouse, Mathew Callaghan, Alexandra Duggan, and Elena Perry, dated Nov. 3, 2026, and updated Wed., Nov. 4, 2026, at 12:04 p.m. with no zone, reported Nowels said at a Tuesday night news conference that three people are dead, including the shooter, that two deputies were in critical condition and fighting for their lives, and that another woman suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds. Fighting for their lives, on Tuesday night, and died in the hospital overnight, on Wednesday's release, are not the same status. It reported deputies responded to a Spangle home on Smythe Road around 2:25 p.m. Tuesday, that a woman had run to her neighbor's house and said she had been shot by her brother, and that a drone found a body in the yard. She is not named here. It reported Nowels did not identify the suspect and said he had an active felony warrant for eluding. It reported that at about 3:15 p.m. a SWAT team and deputies approached the home, in the 18700 block of South Smythe Road, tried to break down the door, and were met with gunfire, and that an additional victim was on the floor after three deputies returned gunfire. It reported one deputy was taken to Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center by patrol car and the other was flown by a Life Flight helicopter. It reported one was a member of the SWAT team and another was a K-9 deputy who recently had been on SWAT, and also that both are young members of the SWAT team. A K-9 deputy who recently had been on SWAT, and two young members of the SWAT team, are both on that page. They are not the same roster line. It reported he did not name the deputies. The death story the next day puts the house in the 18700 block of South Smythe, with no Road, and says the woman was taken to a hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries, printed as one word. Non-lifethreatening, on that Nov. 4 story, and non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, on the Nov. 3 story, are not the same spelling and not the same injury word. KHQ's deputy-dead story reported Nowels said deputies were called to the 18000 block of S. Smythe Road just after 2:30 p.m. The 18000 block, and the 18700 block, are not the same block. Just after 2:30 p.m., and around 2:25 p.m., are not the same clock. That KHQ story reported that when she reported the shooting to 9-1-1, she told dispatchers there were two other people inside whom she believed to be in immediate danger, that drones showed the suspect was an active threat with an outstanding felony warrant, and that a person down in the yard was later declared dead. Two other people inside, on that page, is not a sentence on the Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story. It reported that before the deputies were shot, they confirmed another person on the ground inside was also dead, and that one deputy went by patrol car and one by helicopter. Before they were shot, on KHQ, and after three deputies returned gunfire, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same sequence for the person inside. KHQ's other story, in a November 3, 2026, 10:35 p.m. update citing a sheriff's office press release, reported the 18700 block of S. Smythe Rd, around 2:25 p.m., a woman who said she had been shot, an active felony warrant, SWAT at around 3:15 p.m., and Life Flight helicopters, plural. Helicopters, on that update, and one Life Flight helicopter, on the Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story, are not the same count. That update says she was shot by the suspect and does not use the word brother. A 9:56 p.m. update on the same page says she said she was shot by her brother, and that Nowels did not say what the felony warrant was for. Did not say what the warrant was for, on that update, and an active felony warrant for eluding, on the Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story, are not the same warrant line. FOX 13 Seattle reported deputies arrived at around 2:25 p.m. at a home in the 18700 block of South Smythe Road, that the male suspect may have had access to additional weapons and possibly additional victims, and that he had multiple active felony warrants. Multiple active felony warrants, on FOX 13 Seattle, and an active felony warrant, singular, on Nowels's account, are not the same count. It reported an exigent entry, which it says means they entered without a search warrant, that other deputies returned fire, and that the two deputies were airlifted to Sacred Heart Hospital. Airlifted, for both, on FOX 13 Seattle, and one by patrol car and one by helicopter, on the Spokesman-Review and on KHQ, are not the same transport. Sacred Heart Hospital, and Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, are not the same name. It reported a female victim was hospitalized with a non-life threatening gunshot wound. Non-life threatening, with a space and no hyphen before threatening, is the spelling on that page. NTD, by Rachel Acenas, published 11/4/2026 at 10:58:34 p.m. EST, reported both deputies were dispatched at approximately 2:25 p.m. to the 18700 block of South Smythe Road north of Spanle. Spanle, on NTD, and Spangle, on the other pages, are not the same spelling. It reported an adult male suspect had an active felony arrest warrant, might have had additional weapons, and could have been holding additional victims. It reported Life Flight helicopters, plural, were called to transport the wounded deputies. It reported the names of the deputies have not been released.

Who was found dead, and where, is not one account. The Spokesman-Review's death story reported three civilians were killed, and that one of them was the suspect, which Nowels said at the Tuesday night news conference. Duggan's later story the same night reported the suspect in a shooting that killed two civilians and a deputy was Ryan T. Larsen, 37, with a history of weapons violations and eluding police. Two civilians, in that lede, and three civilians, one of them the suspect, in the death story, are not the same count, and both are hers on Nov. 4. It reported officials have not identified the shooter, and that the Spokesman-Review learned Larsen's identity through interviews and public records. Officials have not identified the shooter, and the paper's identification of Ryan T. Larsen, are both on that page. They are not the same naming. It reported the records show he lived at 18819 S. Smythe Road in Spangle, where the shooting occurred. 18819 S. Smythe Road, on that story, the 18700 block of South Smythe Road, on the Nov. 3 story, and the 18000 block of S. Smythe Road, on KHQ, are not the same address. It reported he also died at the scene, and that it has not been disclosed whether he killed himself or was killed by deputies. Has not been disclosed, on that page, is not a sentence that picks a cause. KHQ's 6:15 p.m. update, with no zone, said the Spokesman-Review identified 37-year-old Spangle resident Ryan T. Larsen through interviews and public records, in a shooting that killed a deputy and two others. Spangle resident, on KHQ, and lived at 18819 S. Smythe Road, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same residence line. Two others, on that KHQ update, and two civilians, and three civilians, are not the same count. FOX 13 Seattle's 6:52 a.m. PST page, earlier the same day, reported the shooting suspect has not yet been identified, and that one victim was found dead in the yard while another victim and the suspect were found dead inside. Not yet been identified, at 6:52 a.m. PST, and identified through interviews and public records, on the Spokesman-Review's 9:47 p.m. update and on KHQ's 6:15 p.m. update, are not the same hour and not the same naming. Inside the home, for the suspect, on FOX 13 Seattle, and died at the scene with no disclosure of suicide or deputy gunfire, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same place and cause. KREM reported three others died, including the suspect, that one victim was outside in a yard, and that two others were found dead inside, including the suspect. Two others inside including the suspect, on KREM, and one victim in the yard plus another victim and the suspect inside, on FOX 13 Seattle, and a body in the yard plus an additional victim on the floor after deputies returned fire, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same map. KHQ's 9:56 p.m. update reported the suspect was later found dead as well as one other person inside. Its deputy-dead story reported they later determined the suspect was dead, after Spokane police and Kootenai County SWAT also responded. Later found dead, and before the deputies were shot the person inside was already dead, are both on KHQ. They are not the same sequence. NTD reported deputies later found one body inside the home and a second body in the yard, and that the suspect was also dead, which it attributed to Nowels at a Tuesday press conference. One body inside and a second in the yard, and the suspect also dead, on NTD, is a third count of the dead on that page. The woman is not named here. The people found dead are not named here. Duggan's identification story reported law enforcement and the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office have yet to disclose the names of the victims.

The warrant is not one warrant. The Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story reported Nowels said the suspect, whom he did not identify, had an active felony warrant for eluding. KHQ's 9:56 p.m. update reported he did not say what the felony warrant was for. FOX 13 Seattle reported multiple active felony warrants. NTD reported an active felony arrest warrant and did not print the word eluding. Duggan's identification story reported a felony warrant for Larsen's arrest out of Spokane County is from Feb. 6, according to court records, and that he also has court history in Whitman County. A Feb. 6 warrant, on that story, and a warrant for eluding, in Nowels's Tuesday account, are not the same sentence. The story does not print that the Feb. 6 warrant is the eluding warrant. It reported court records of a chase last year, a Spokane Valley deputy near East Appleway Avenue and South Vista Road, a truck 14 mph over the limit, a red light at Dishman Mica Road, and two warrants for weapons offenses on the record the deputy checked. Two warrants for weapons offenses, in that chase account, and the Feb. 6 felony warrant, are not the same line. It reported Whitman County records from 2015 in Rosalia, a man identified as Larsen pointing a revolver at a pedestrian, three weapons, a .357 Magnum, a long rifle, and a shotgun, a second-degree assault charge, a conviction for aiming or discharging a firearm, 10 days in jail, an appeal dismissed in 2022, and a failure to appear warrant related to that case. The pedestrian is not named here. That conviction is the 2015 case the paper described. It is not a finding about Tuesday. Gov. Bob Ferguson, in the Spokesman-Review death story, said Wednesday his staff has "been in communication" with law enforcement, and, at a news conference in his office at the state Capitol, "Our hearts just go out to everybody impacted by that, by that very real tragedy there." The story reported he said it is "entirely possible" he will visit Spokane in the coming days, and that he spent a lot of time in Spokane County in light of the fires. FOX 13 Seattle reported he said, "My prayers remain with the families of these deputies." My prayers remain, on FOX 13 Seattle, and been in communication, and entirely possible he will visit, on the Spokesman-Review, are not the same comments. The prayers sentence is not in the death story. The Capitol news conference is not in the FOX 13 Seattle story. Who is investigating is not one assignment. The Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story reported the Spokane Police Department has taken over the investigation and the Washington State Patrol is investigating the deputies' use of deadly force. KHQ reported three additional deputies who fired their weapons were placed on administrative leave pending a Washington State Patrol investigation, that Spokane police will lead the homicide investigation, and that the patrol is taking the Spokane Independent Incident Response part. Administrative leave is on KHQ. It is not in the Nov. 3 Spokesman-Review story read here. Three deputies returned gunfire, on that story, and three additional deputies on leave, on KHQ, are not the same sentence. KREM's page, updated Thursday morning, reported the Washington State Patrol is now in charge and the Spokane Police Department is assisting, both confirmed Wednesday, and that once the SIIR team completes its investigation the case will be forwarded to the Spokane County Prosecutor's Office. WSP is now in charge, on KREM, and the Spokane Police Department has taken over, on the Nov. 3 story, are not the same assignment. Confirmed Wednesday, on a page updated Thursday, is KREM's timing. It is not a second confirmation on Thursday. Ryan T. Larsen is dead, on the Spokesman-Review's account of the records. He was not named by officials in the early releases those pages describe. The Feb. 6 warrant is not a finding about Tuesday. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
