Lake Forest Park police ask public's help to locate armed and dangerous suspects

On July 1, 2014 at about 7:30am Lake Forest Park Officers responded to a disturbance in the 2600 block of NE 195th St. Officers located three individuals in the residence who had been physically assaulted. One victim was transported to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The investigation has revealed that three suspects entered the residence, two of which were armed with handguns and assaulted the occupants of the residence. The suspects used the weapons to “pistol whip” the victims and threatened to kill them if the assault was reported to authorities. No shots were fired at the scene. Two of the three suspects have been positively identified but all are still at large.

A search warrant was obtained for a residence in the 16000 block of Burke Ave N in the City of Shoreline. Due to the violent nature of the crime, the North Sound Metro SWAT team, including hostage negotiators, was mobilized for the warrant service which occurred around 5:00pm Wednesday afternoon. The SWAT team was assisted by officers from the both Lake Forest Park and the City of Shoreline. None of the suspects were in the residence at the time of the operation. Hostage negotiators did make contact with one suspect who, at this time, has refused to turn himself in.

The Lake Forest Park Police is asking for the public’s help in locating the following suspects who are wanted for felony assault and armed robbery:

Aron Gebregergish, Black Male, 5'10" 230 pounds, age 22

Able Gebregergish, Black Male, 5'8" 165 pounds age 24

These suspects should be considered armed and dangerous and should not be contacted or confronted.

If you have any information on the whereabouts of either of these suspects call the Lake Forest Park Police Department at 425-486-1254 or 911 to get in contact with your local law enforcement agency.
