On January 21, 2025, at approximately 6:47 p. m. , South County Deputies were dispatched to a stabbing that took place in the Pizza Hut parking lot at 429 128th St. SW, Everett, Washington. This incident is particularly concerning as it represents the second stabbing in Everett within just five days, following an earlier attack on a 6th grader.

The Snohomish County Sheriff's Office stated that this stabbing is unrelated to the previous incident, highlighting a troubling trend of violence in the community. As residents grapple with these events, the need for increased safety measures and community vigilance becomes paramount. This latest incident emphasizes the importance of addressing crime in local neighborhoods and fostering a sense of security among residents.

Community leaders and law enforcement are urged to collaborate on strategies to combat rising violence in Everett.
