Two shot at Goldsby area party

The McClain County Sheriff’s Department and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation are investigating an early morning shooting in the Goldsby area last Saturday night.

Investigating McClain County Detective Rob Foust said two people were shot at a party between midnight Saturday and 1 a.m. Sunday.

Both were transported by private vehicles to Oklahoma City area hospitals where they are expected to survive, Foust said. They were reported to be in stable condition.

Foust told The Purcell Register late Monday there was no suspect in the case at this time.

Foust said what is possibly an Airbnb was rented out at 315th and Santa Fe just off SH 9.

Foust said the scene was pretty chaotic and since both victims were 40 miles away from the scene by the time authorities arrived it made the investigation difficult.

Foust said people were running around everywhere and the scene was pretty spread out.

“We called OSBI in to assist with the scene and assist with the investigation. They took the case,” Foust said. “According to the information we’ve gathered, the party was a gathering of 20-100 people.

“At some point some kind of fight or disagreement began and gunshots were fired. We received multiple calls on it,” Foust said.

“Later we received calls from hospitals and other agencies telling of the gun shots. We interviewed victims and witnesses in Oklahoma City. There are lots of investigators.”
