Convicted child molester found murdered in Tacoma; police seek suspects

TACOMA, Wash. (KCPQ) -- Tacoma Police detectives are seeking the public's help to identify the suspect(s) responsible for the murder of 36-year-old Raymond Serrano.

At 11:24 p.m. on Wednesday March 18, 2020, Serrano was shot by an unidentified suspect near E. 26th Street and D Street in the city of Tacoma.

Detectives are looking for information on a vehicle seen in the area where the shooting occurred and is believed to have been involved in the crime. Investigators believe a dark-colored sedan was occupied by multiple suspects and may have stayed in the area after the homicide.

U.S. Marshals announced in November that convicted child predator Raymond Serrano was named to the Pacific Northwest Violent Offender Task Force Top Ten Most Wanted fugitives list.

Serrano was wanted for Escape from Community Custody — breaking probation on a child molestation conviction that he's being supervised for by the DOC in Pierce County.
