A Riverton man is arrested after his involvement in a shooting.

Just before 6:00pm last night, Cherokee County Sheriff's deputies responded to a shooting north of Riverton. The victim, who was not injured, had been shot at multiple times by a family member. The suspect fled the scene prior to law enforcement's arrival. This morning, an arrest warrant was issued for 37-year-old Joshua Ferguson, with charges of attempted second-degree murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault and criminal threat.

As a result of their investigation, Cherokee County Detectives learned Ferguson was hiding out in Webb City. Through coordinated efforts with Missouri law enforcement, Ferguson was located and apprehended. Ferguson is being held in the Jasper County Jail, pending extradition back to Kansas.
