A Muscatine man is in custody after a shooting and standoff at a Muscatine residence.
Mario Perales, of 2015 Schiller St., was arrested late Sunday after an incident at his residence, according to Muscatine County Attorney Alan R. Ostergren.
Muscatine police responded to a 911 call at 6:04 p.m. that reported a male subject had been shot at the residence. Officers immediately approached the residence and pulled the victim to safety.
Police established a perimeter and attempted to make contact with Perales, whom they suspected was inside the residence. After attempts to contact him were unsuccessful, officers introduced chemical irritants into the residence.
Perales then surrendered. A Muscatine police officer suffered a minor injury while breaching the residence. The Special Response Teams of both the Muscatine Police Department and the Muscatine County Sheriff's Department were at the scene. The Muscatine Fire Department also responded.
The victim, who had multiple gunshot wounds, was transported to Trinity Muscatine, then transferred to University Hospitals, Iowa City. Neither the victim's name nor his condition was available late Sunday.
Perales has been charged with attempt to commit murder, a class B felony punishable by imprisonment for a term not to exceed 25 years, and interference with official acts while armed with a dangerous weapon, a class D felony punishable by imprisonment for a term not to exceed five years.
He will be held without bond in Muscatine County Jail pending an initial appearance at 9 a.m. Monday.
