(KAIR)--A Friday evening Atchison shooting injures one and lands another in custody. 

Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News it happened around 7:40, in the 700 block of Washington Street, when a confrontation apparently led to gunfire that left the resident of that location shot in the leg. “A 25-year-old man who lives at the residence was outside when a 42-year-old man, who had been next door, walked over to the residence and a confrontation began,” Wilson says. “A person inside the residence opened the front door about that time, and the two men continued the confrontation into the house, where a dog became involved. The dog was shot and the 25-year-old man was shot in the leg.”

Taken into custody for the alleged shooting was 42-year-old Atchison resident Bryan Boldridge, who now faces a charge of aggravated battery. 

The victim is identified as Duane Seymore. He was transported from the scene for hospitalized treatment of non-life threatening injuries. The victim's name is not immediately made public as the investigation continues. 

The dog survived, and was taken to a veterinarian for treatment following the shooting.
