BARBOUR COUNTY: We have UNCONFIRMED reports of a shooting at White Oak Shores in Barbour County. The shooting involved a father shooting a man that is reported to have been found naked in the shower of his lake place with his daughter present.
We have attempted to contact Barbour County Sheriff Leroy Upshaw. A message has been left requesting he return my call.
UNCONFIRMED at this point from authorities but from reliable sources, the Houston County woman was at her father's Barbour County lake place. The father found his daughter, which she is in her 40's, with a man who was naked in the shower. The woman is married but separated from her husband.
Sources say the father ordered the man to leave, sources say the man is alleged to have pulled a weapon on her father, at which time he defended himself by shooting the suspect in the legs. The suspect was transported to Barbour Medical Center. Reports are the man was shot in both legs and the injuries are not life threatening.
The father was questioned by Barbour County Sheriff Department and was released and no charges have been filed against him at this time.
At this time we are not releasing the names of the alleged shooter, daughter or man that was shot. After we speak with Barbour County Law Enforcement authorities we will release the names.
