A death was reported Friday at the scene of a reported shootout and kidnapping in Casper, according to the Casper Police Department.

The department, in a post on its Facebook page, reported finding the body after exchanging gunfire with someone at a home in Casper.

The post said officers were responding at about 7 a.m. to a report of a woman being held against her will and at gunpoint at 2200 S. Jefferson in Casper.

After entering the residence, gunfire was exchanged when officers entered the home’s bedroom.

“Officers located multiple individuals. Two individuals sustained gunshots wounds, one of which was deceased on scene. The injured person was transported to the hospital,” the posting said.

No officers were injured during this incident.

At this time, this incident is under investigation by the Division or Criminal Investigations and further information will be released as it becomes available.
