Daniel J. Tveidt, 35, was shot and killed on the evening of October 17, 2020, near 54 Road east of Healy Road in rural Amboy, Washington. Tveidt, a lifelong north Clark County resident and father of four, had been driving with two friends after sunset, watching the sunset and drinking beer when they heard gunfire. He and his friends stopped at a pullout and, according to witnesses, Tveidt exited his vehicle and approached the person firing the weapon while yelling. Several shots were fired; Tveidt, who was unarmed, fell and later died despite efforts to summon emergency medical transport.

The Clark County Major Crimes Team investigated the homicide. The alleged shooter, 32-year-old Cody D. Nutter, fled in his truck; items reportedly fell from the vehicle, including a bag and military dog tags bearing his name, which helped identify him. Nutter was later arrested at his residence with SWAT assistance and booked on suspicion of second-degree murder. Bail was set at $500,000 at his initial appearance, and Nutter’s attorney said a self-defense claim would be pursued, a position Tveidt’s family disputes.

Does anyone have information about the events that night or the people who were at the pullout?
