Man killed in apparent self-defense shooting in Daviess County

DAVIESS COUNTY, Ind. (WTHI) – One person is dead after what appeared to be a self-defense shooting in Daviess County.

The Daviess County dispatchers sent deputies to a home on State Road 257, north of the East Fork of the Wabash River bridge.

The caller said a man, later identified as Kevin Wilson, 59, from Washington, pulled into the driveway, armed with a gun, and started arguing with her husband, David Goble.

When Goble said he noticed Wilson was pointing a gun at home, Gobile fired his weapon twice at Wilson. Wilson got back into his vehicle but later died due to his injuries.

The Daviess County Sheriff’s Office said Wilson suffered with mental health issues and there wasn’t a known connection between the two.

Police said they will hand the information over to the prosecutor’s office once their investigation is complete.
