Anderson man charged with two counts of assault after shooting man with AR-15, firing at woman


The McDonald County Prosecuting Attorney's office filed two counts of assault, two counts of armed criminal action and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child against an Anderson man following an incident Wednesday at a rural Anderson home.

According to the probable cause statement, Ryan Lee Stabeno (DOB 1979) opened fire on a man with an AR-15 following a dispute over the repair of a vehicle. The victim was eventually taken to Freeman West Hospital, Joplin, with injuries to his forearm.







When a woman called out from the house for him to stop shooting, Stabeno turned the weapon at her and shot, hitting the door frame and missing the woman by inches, the probable cause statement said.

The woman went into the house seeking to protect her three children as Stabeno opened fire once more.
