VANCOUVER – More details have been released about a Saturday incident in Vancouver where a newspaper delivery man shot and killed an intruder in his unoccupied vehicle.
On Saturday at about 4:32 a.m., Vancouver Police responded to the 700 block of Waterfront Way for the report of a shooting. Justyn Vallandingham, 35, was delivering newspapers in the area and left his vehicle unlocked and running while he went to make a delivery.
When Vallandingham returned to his vehicle he saw an unknown male, identified as Kin Bossy, 29, sitting in the driver’s seat of his vehicle. Vallandingham pulled his concealed firearm and pointed it at Bossy, who then turned and leaned towards the center console of the vehicle.

A search warrant for Vallandingham’s vehicle has been completed and signed and search of the vehicle by investigators is anticipated to occur this week. Upon completion of the investigation, the Vancouver Police Department Major Crimes Unit will forward the case to the Clark County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for review of possible charges.
There have been no arrests.
