Deputies from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office were involved in a shooting incident near Brinnon Friday afternoon.
Details were initially sparse on the shooting, and law enforcement agencies would not say if the person shot was killed.
The shooting happened at 2:44 p.m. Sept 23 near U.S. Highway 101 and Dosewallips Road, according to the Washington State Patrol.
The incident will be investigated by an Independent Investigation Team, and the State Patrol said it will be the primary investigating agency and will lead the team.
The request for the State Patrol to lead the investigation was made by the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, the State Patrol said in a news release.
The State Patrol has requested the assistance of the Region III Independent Investigation Team agencies, including the Grays Harbor County Sheriff’s Office and the Mason County Sheriff’s Office.
The State Patrol said late Friday the investigation is in its early stages and no further details are available.
Dosewallips Road was closed at US 101 for "law enforcement activity" shortly after 3:30 p.m. Friday.
