A suspect, who was wanted by the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office for a shooting in Baxter Springs, has been taken into custody.

38-year-old Shawn Houston was wanted on an outstanding attempted murder warrant after investigators responded to a shooting in rural Baxter Springs Monday morning.

Just after 11:00pm last night, law enforcement in Greene County Missouri attempted to stop the vehicle Houston was in when it fled and eventually wrecked. Houston was arrested and is currently being held in the Greene County Jail pending extradition back to Kansas.
