Suspect killed by police in Southcenter

An investigation is underway after a suspect was shot and killed by Seattle Police during an attempted arrest at the DoubleTree Suites Hilton Hotel in Southcenter.

SEATTLE - The suspect gunned down by police in a Southcenter hotel has been identified as retired Navy doctor Bruce Coval Meneley.
Meneley was shot and killed by Seattle Police around 3 p.m. on April 17 at the DoubleTree on Southcenter Parkway.
Body camera video released last week by Seattle Police showed an operation to confront 67-year-old Meneley, who was suspected of child sex crimes. Officers came out of a hotel room to approach him, and appeared on bodycam video to pull out a gun from his jacket.
All three officers unloaded on him, firing around 30 shots.
According to medical records, Meneley died from "multiple gunshot wounds."
