Two locals surrender in Moses Lake stabbing

Two Coulee Dam residents surrendered to authorities Sunday as suspects in a Moses Lake stabbing.

Rebecca N. Norton, 28, and 24-year-old Aaron Pfaltzgraff-Miller, both of Coulee Dam surrendered about 4:15 p.m. Sunday, the Grant County Sheriff's Office said.

Responders were called about 4 a.m. Saturday to the 11000 block of Road 14 Northeast for an adult male who had been stabbed. Investigators said everyone involved had been at the home for a party.

The victim, whom authorities did not name, underwent surgery at Samaritan Healthcare in Moses Lake to repair injuries from multiple stab wounds to his neck and torso, GCSO said.

Norton and Pfaltzgraff-Miller had left the scene of the stabbing before deputies arrived, and after their 1994 pickup was found "parked and abandoned" behind the North Stratford Mini Mart about 11 a.m., the two were named as suspects of first-degree assault.

Pfaltzgraff-Miller was listed as an inmate at Grant County Jail Tuesday; Norton was not.
