Saturday I went to the springs. Upon arriving at the new D.C. hot springs campground I learned that Brent Gaddes, one of the owners of the campground had been shot the previous evening. By Mike Castro, the owner of the Bowen ranch next door. I got 2 very different stories from 2 different people. The police are investigating. Brent was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance. The bullet only glanced his back, bouncing from one side of his back over his spinal column and into the other side of his back. Very fortunate for Brent. He is only able to lay on his stomach in pain. The altercation started by Mike accuseing Brent of stealing his sign. Which is most likely untrue. And even so is no reason to shot an unarmed neighbor. If anyone here has more information about this situation please post that here. Mike was not arrested. Which to me seems to threaten the safety of the area. It is my hope that Brent gets justice for this near death situation. I will update here as more information becomes available.
