The particulars or what led to the shooting was not obtainable, but it is said jealousy was the cause.  It is understood that Gunnels and his wife had been separated for several weeks.  Deputy Sheriff Henry Kilgore arrested Gunnels who gave up without resisting and was placed in the county jail.  All parties in the fray were negroes.
