1 man dead, 1 hurt in Dodge City shooting

Special to The Hays Daily News

DODGE CITY — Dodge City police are investigating the death of one man and wounding of another in a double shooting near the Arkansas River.

Police Chief John Ball says 35-year-old Dodge City resident Steven Holt died Monday after being shot twice in the chest. Twenty-one-year-old Tanner Brunson, Minneola, was shot twice and is in intensive care Western Plains Regional Hospital.

Ball says his officers are still investigating.

Ball would not say if police are looking for a suspect, but did say the handgun used to shoot both men has not been recovered.

The two men were driving a four-wheel-drive vehicle in the river bed but were not in the vehicle when they were shot.
