Shooting leaves two injured

Two were injured when an ex-husband drove his truck through a metal gate and peppered his ex-wife's mobile home with .22-caliber slugs, according to Durant Police.

Durant Police Chief Gary Rudick, who was at the scene, said that Travis Wigington, 47, drove through the gate of property located at 2909 Cemetery Road, pulled out a .22-caliber rifle, and began firing at a travel trailer occupied by Carol Annette Johnson, 45, and her 6-year-old daughter.

According to police, Johnson yelled at Wigington to stop shooting and that the child was inside. Rudick said Johnson returned fire with a handgun.

The incident was heard by a police dispatcher when Johnson called at 5:05.

“She called us and said, ‘He's shooting at us,' and finally, she said, ‘I shot him,'” Rudick said.

Johnson was hit in the right shoulder, and Wigington was shot in the groin area. Both were taken to the Medical Center of Southeastern Oklahoma where they are listed in stable condition, according to a hospital spokesperson.
