(KAIR)--Attempted first degree murder, aggravated battery, and two counts of aggravated assault.

Those are the charges faced by the 68-year-old man accused of pulling the trigger during a Memorial Day family dispute that occurred in the 9600 block of 86th Street, in rural Oskaloosa.

According to a release from Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Herrig, Larry Hysten was located by Sheriff’s Deputies, following the shooting, and taken into custody.

Shot during the dispute was 54-year-old Winfred Rodriguez, who was transported by Jefferson County EMS to Topeka’s Stormont Vail for the treatment of his injuries.

The relationship between the two men has not been clarified.

According to Herrig, “no other subjects are being sought” in connection to the shooting, but asks for the public’s help as the investigation continues.

Anyone with information related to the shooting should contact the Detective Division of the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office at 785-863-2765.

Following his arrest Monday, Hysten was booked into the Jefferson County Jail.
