Clayton Wagner went upstairs to calm the situation, but the police were already on their way. Krieger's wife and son got away, but state police said Krieger shot Joan Wagner. State police said they exchanged gunfire with Krieger and that's when he went back into the home and threatened his father-in-law. "Mr. Wagner attempted to get the suspect to put his rifle down," said Guth. "When he wouldn't put it down, he fired a shot at him."
