A struggle over a .22 -caliber pistol between a man and his ex-wife caused both of them to be shot near Freetown early Friday morning, July 2, according to Deputy Jerry Hounshel of the county police. He said Teresa Engleking, 27, Freetown Rt. 1, was expected to be released from St. Vincent's Hospital at Indianapolis? this week. She was tranferred there from the hospital at Seymour after being hit in the right leg by a slug, police said.

Her former husband, Gary Engleking, also of the Freetown area, was released from the Indianapolis hospital later Friday morning after being treated for a gunshot wound to the left hand, Hounshel said. No charges have been filed in connection with the case, Hounshel said, although he will turn his information over to the county prosecuting attorney. Stephen D. Doboze. He said it would be up to the prosecutor whether a grand jury would review the matter.

An earlier report of the incident had said police still were trying to determine how the shooting occurred, Hounshel said both Englekings returned to her residence on Hound Hollow after attending the Freetown Fourth of July celebration Thursday night. He said both of them had been drinking alcoholic beverages. Engleking told his ex-wife upon returning to the residence from the festival that he was going to shoot the neighbor's dog if the dog came onto her property, Hounshel said. He said Engleking got the pistol and sat on the front porch. Hounshel said Mrs.

Engleking became scared because Engleking had the gun in his hand after he had been drinking. He said she began arguing with him about the gun.
