On May 30, 2022 the Wood County Sheriff's Department investigated a shooting which took place in the Town of Richfield, Wood County.

The Wood County Sheriff's Department and Marshfield Police Department Special Response Team were able to take Jason R. Schultz (Age: 29) into custody in connection with the shooting.

Schultz is being held at the Wood County Jail and charges of First-Degree Reckless Injury and Bail Jumping- Felony are being forwarded to the Wood County District Attorney's Office

The male victim who is a 33 year old Marshfield man is currently being treated at the Marshfield Medical Center in Marshfield, Wisconsin and his status is unknown. The victim was shot in the pelvic area with a .22 caliber long gun.
