EVERETT, Wash. — Authorities in Everett have arrested a man on suspicion of murder and tampering with physical evidence after investigators believe he killed his landlord.
The Daily Herald reported Monday that the wife of the landlord went looking for her overdue husband Saturday after he went to check on one of their commercial properties in Everett.
The woman told authorities that her husband’s truck and cellphone were outside and she saw a tenant cleaning up drops of blood outside their rental property.
Investigators say officers later broke into the apartment to discover the smell of bleach. No body was found.
