A 21-year-old man was arrested Wednesday in connection with a shooting in Federal Way last week that killed a 20-year-old and injured two others, according to Federal Way police.

Muldhata Dawud was in a car with five other people near the 32800 block of First Avenue South in Federal Way just after 1 a.m. Thursday when another man drove up alongside and opened fire, said Federal Way police spokeswoman Cathy Schrock.

Three young men were in the back seat of the car, including Dawud.
