Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2019 Lake City shooting spree
is not the appropriate standard for judging notability here.  simply states that where a person is known only for the crime, then the article should be about the crime and not about the person. The real decider here should be , particularly  and . Searching for sources is complicated by the Salt Lake City shooting on the 9th of April, 2019, but https://www.washingtonpost.com/gdpr-consent/?destination=%2fnation%2f2019%2f03%2f28%2fshooting-seattle-leaves-two-dead-two-critical-condition-police-say%2f%3f&utm_term=.1f68407c2a40 I see that this was reported in the Washington Post which certainly counts as national-level coverage.  therefore seems sustainable. This was a recent event so it's too early to make a call on , as  states that "It may take weeks or months to determine whether or not an event has a lasting effect. This does not, however, mean recent events with unproven lasting effect are automatically non-notable". As USER:Icewhiz states there are good reasons for believing it might have a lasting effect (the unusual defence used by the apparent perpetrator). The https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/crime/seattle-man-charged-in-lake-city-shootings-says-he-was-drunk-doesnt-recall-rampage-police-say/ not-guilty plea was also reported by the Seattle Times. As for , the relevant part of this is point 2., which states that it should not be a routine event - but there is no suggestion that the events reported in this are routine, especially as they were reported in the British media. Coverage of the shootings from the tech angle (the shooter was an ex-Microsoft employee and claimed to have been playing X-box all day)https://www.geekwire.com/2019/tech-worker-charged-fatal-seattle-rampage-claims-playing-xbox-drinking-blacked-doesnt-remember-anything/ can also be seen, https://www.stripes.com/what-a-waste-of-my-brother-s-life-family-mourns-retired-air-force-colonel-killed-in-seattle-shooting-rampage-1.574782/shooting-1.574783 as well as coverage from the angle of one of the victims being ex-military by Stars And Stripes. On balance I lean keep based on the above
