WEBSTER COUNTY, Iowa (WHO-TV) — Three people are dead following a shooting at a rural Webster County home Sunday night. The Webster County Sheriff’s Office said a 911 call came in around 7:40 p.m. from a juvenile that two people had been shot at 2101 140th Street. That’s about nine miles north of Fort Dodge. The caller told dispatchers the suspected shooter had fled on foot.

Deputies with the WCSO arrived minutes after the call and found 39-year-old Molly Barlow and 63-year-old Phyllis Versteeg in the garage area. Both had been shot. The deputies attempted life-saving medical care until paramedics arrived, but both victims died at the scene. In a search of the home by deputies and officers with the Fort Dodge Police Department, the body of 41-year-old Duran Barlow was located. The WCSO said it appeared he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation was called in to process the scene and conduct interviews. The investigation into what happened continues but the WCSO said there is no threat to the public.
