Shooting at Rocky Boy under investigation

Chippewa Cree Criminal Investigator Ed Long Knife said a shooting that was discovered at Rocky Boy’s Indian Reservation is still under investigation.

Long Knife said the victim, Joscayne Denny, 43, was in stable condition as of yesterday. He was transported from Northern Montana Hospital to Benefis Hospital in Great Falls because he was in critical condition after the gunshot wound was discovered Sunday, Long Knife said.

Long Knife said the investigation started with a report of a vehicle crash on Taylor Road Sunday at about 9:23 p.m.

The responders found Denny at the scene, apparently ejected from the vehicle, Long Knife said.

Denny was transported to the Havre hospital, where the medical team treating him discovered he had been shot.

Due to his serious condition, Denny was transported by air ambulance to Great Falls, Long Knife said.

He added that evidence has been discovered at the scene of the crash and he does have a suspect or suspects but is not releasing additional information while he and the FBI continue the investigation.
