Police said they found an adult male who had what they described as non-life-threatening injuries from being shot, and he was taken to a hospital. Officers “did locate evidence” that led to a juvenile being taken into custody. Authorities identified the shooting victim as 39-year-old Beau Kopp (K-o-p-p), who was shot in the abdomen. An initial investigation found that Kopp was involved in an argument with one person in a group of three when he was shot. A city public safety spokeswoman identified the suspect as Corey Lamar Cullar Jr., 17. He was arrested on charges of attempted murder, willful injury and going armed with intent.
