ST. FRANCOIS COUNTY, MO (KFVS) -
The St. Francois County Sheriff's Department has questioned two people and is looking for a third after a man was shot twice with a shotgun Tuesday afternoon just outside of Farmington.
Investigators say the shooting happened at a business at the corner of Delassus and Highway 221 just west of the Farmington city limits. Officers say the victim then walked to a nearby business for help.
Mark L. Martin, Sr., 51, was arrested on an unrelated outstanding warrant from St. Louis County for possession of a controlled substance. Martin has since posted bond on the charge and released.
A 37-year-old Farmington resident was questioned and released pending further investigation.
A 59-year-old Farmington resident is still being sought in connection with the incident.
The 39-year-old victim was shot once on his left side and once in the back.
After he was shot, he drove himself to a gas station about a quarter of a mile away to get help.
The injuries are not life threatening. He was treated and released from a St. Louis hospital.
Police say one suspect was in custody while another ran from police.
Investigators are looking for a white male in his 60s, who was wearing a blue flannel shirt.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Farmington Police Department or St. Francois County dispatch.
