PORT ORCHARD, Wash. (AP) - Authorities have identified a 31-year-old Salt Lake City man as the person who ran from deputies before opening fire in a Walmart parking lot, sparking a shootout
that killed him and a young woman and wounded two deputies.

The Washington State Patrol says the man is 31-year-old Anthony A. Martinez.

Kitsap County sheriff's deputies responded to a call Sunday about a suspicious person at the store in Port Orchard. Two deputies tried to talk to the suspect, but he began running and
shooting. Officers say the young woman was shot as she went to the wounded man.
