According to a press release by the Monett Police Department, they are attempting to locate Kyle Huse, 31, of Aurora, who is considered a person of interest in the case. Huse is described as a white male.
At approximately 12:30 a.m. on Tuesday, August 20, Monett officers responded to a call regarding shots fired in the 200 block of Frisco Street. When officers arrived on scene, they located the victim, a 50 year old white male from Monett. The victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was transported by ambulance and later by air for treatment of serious injuries, according to the release.
Detective David Haskins, of the Monett Police Department, confirmed the victim of the shooting was in stable condition and that his injuries were not life threatening. Officers were able to interview him after a surgery for his wounds.
Monett Police Chief George Daoud said they are trying to determine the whereabouts of Huse in the press release. They've asked anyone with information to contact the Monett Police Department.
Haskins said, “It seemed to be an insolated incident. We have information that [Huse] is local, and we have nothing that leads us to believe he’s left the area at this time.” He also said officers have no reason to believe he is a danger to anyone else in the community.
Haskins added, “It’s our understanding at this point that the shooting was about a particular issue between these two people, and the community isn’t in danger.”
Haskins confirmed there were witnesses to the incident and they are still searching for Huse.
