Search continues for shooter

By ASSOCIATED PRESS Monday, November 3, 2008 - 8:32 a.m.

CROSS PLAINS, Wis. (AP) Dane County sheriff's deputies continue their search for a suspect wanted for fatally shooting an acquaintance and wounding the victim's fiancee.

Craig Severson and Lisa Morgan were preparing a first birthday celebration for their son in Cross Plains Friday when the assailant shot them.

Severson's brother, Ken Severson, says the child was present when his parents were shot, but was not physically harmed.

Sheriff's officials say Morgan is in critical condition at a local hospital under police protection.

Authorities haven't talking publicly about a motive for the shooting, but Ken Severson said Sunday the shooter may have blamed his brother for the breakup of a previous relationship with a woman.

Oh nevermind that last ?. Obviously if Morgan is in critical condition she is the one that survived.

Which one of them died? Ugh for that child to be there while his parents were shot, brings tears to my eyes to even think about.
