Wapato Murder Suspect Sought by Authorities

Posted on by admin


The Yakima County Sheriff’s Office is seeking leads and tips to locate a murder suspect.

  Woman found shot Friday morning, later dies

Early Friday morning (Deputies did not say exactly what time) Deputies responded to a residence in the 100 block of Mellis Road, near Wapato, for a  Domestic Violence incident, and shots were fired.

Authorities did not release any information if others were present, but when they arrived, they found a woman had been shot. Despite lifesaving measures by Deputies and EMS, she died at the scene.

The suspect has been identified as 45-year-old Gianni Philip Alaimo from Yakima.  He was last seen leaving the scene in a white 2018 Cadillac XTS, but his location is not known.  The YCSO says the woman was his girlfriend. Her ID is being withheld pending the autopsy and notification of family.
