A man who was found with a gunshot wound to his leg was later arrested for assault at a residence on January 19, according to the Owensboro Police Department.

According to OPD, police responded to a disturbance on January 19 just after midnight in the 2100 block of Churchill Court. Upon officers’ arrival, an adult male was located in a parking lot with a gunshot wound to his leg.

The man, identified by OPD as 41-year-old Joshua Karriem, of Owensboro, was treated at the scene by AMR and taken to Owensboro Health Regional Hospital.

A detective with the Criminal Investigation Division assisted officers in gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses, authorities said. According to the release, the investigation determined that Karriem was involved in a verbal argument inside a nearby apartment occupied by a resident, her daughter, and her grandchildren.

According to the release, Karriem refused to leave when told to do so and became physically violent, assaulting and choking the resident. OPD stated that when the resident’s adult child intervened, Karriem began assaulting her as well, including choking her.

The resident retrieved a firearm and shot Karriem as he continued the assault and refused to leave the apartment, according to OPD.

Karriem was discharged from medical care and transported to the Daviess County Detention Center, the release says. OPD said he was charged with:

• First-degree burglary

• First-degree strangulation (domestic violence-related)

• First-degree strangulation (non-domestic violence)

• Fourth-degree assault (dating violence, minor injury)

• Fourth-degree assault (minor injury)
