Police and School District Final Update: All Three Suspects Identified in Enumclaw High School Break‑In 'Prank'
Enumclaw, WA - June 3, 2025
On Saturday, May 31st, just before 10:00 P.M., armed and masked juveniles entered Enumclaw High School. No theft or vandalism was committed, and the suspects fled upon officer arrival. On Monday morning, we reviewed surveillance footage from the incident and determined that the behavior of the subjects was suspicious, causing concern for a possible planned active shooter event. Once these concerns were raised, we coordinated with the Enumclaw School District for the release of the photos and requested assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the King County Coalition of Small Police Agencies – Major Crimes Task Force.
We received a great deal of tips from the community and have been able to identify all three subjects. As a result of our investigation, we have determined that this incident was not for the purpose of an active shooter situation, but was intended to be part of a prank on the Enumclaw High School. The weapon seen in the photos was an airsoft gun and has been taken as evidence. Two of the three subjects were brought into custody. The third subject was visiting from another state and has returned home. As this incident was an intended prank, there is no continued threat at the Enumclaw High School, but we will maintain an increased police presence throughout the day today and tomorrow to alleviate additional concerns. The two suspects who will be charged with a crime are Enumclaw High School students. As this case involves juvenile subjects, we cannot disclose their names, but they have been cooperating with us throughout the investigation.
Thanks to tips from concerned community members, we were able to quickly identify all subjects involved in this incident. Additionally, the assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Enumclaw Fire Department, King County Office of Emergency Management, and the King County Coalition of Small Police Agencies – Major Crimes Task Force allowed us to appropriately and safely manage this delicate situation.
