Bond set in wife shooting case

BENTONVILLE — A Lowell man suspected of shooting his wife and another man believed the two were having an affair, according to court documents filed Monday.

Keylan Osburn, 27, was arrested Friday morning in connection with two counts of first-degree attempted murder, aggravated assault, two counts of endangering the welfare of a minor, three counts of first-degree false imprisonment and aggravated residential burglary. His bond was set at $250,000 Monday. Prosecutors haven’t filed formal charges against Osburn.

Police arrested Osburn after the early Friday morning shootings and four-hour standoff with police at Fairways at Lost Springs in Little Flock. Jessica Osburn, Keylan Osburn’s wife, suffered two gunshot wounds to the head. Carlos Martinez was struck by one gunshot in the shoulder, according to the affidavit.

They were taken to Mercy Medical Center in Rogers. Jessica Osburn later was airlifted to Mercy Hospital in Springfield, Mo. Nathan Smith, Benton County’s prosecutor, said Monday Jessica Osburn was still in the hospital, but he didn’t know her condition.

Keylan Osburn told police he went to the apartment to convince his wife to come home, according to a probable cause affidavit. He caught them together several days earlier, the affidavit states.

Osburn said he normally keeps a gun in his vehicle’s glove box and he grabbed the gun to scare Martinez, according to the affidavit.

Osburn said he knocked on the apartment door and spoke several times through the door to get them to let him in the apartment, according to court documents.

Osburn said he fired one shot into the door and a second into the deadbolt lock, according to the affidavit. He then heard Martinez say, “You shot your wife in the face,” the affidavit says.

Osburn then forced his way into the apartment and saw his wife, covered in blood, run toward the bathroom, according to the affidavit. Osburn said he and Martinez began to fight over the gun and it fired in the struggle. Osburn gained control of the pistol, pointed it at Martinez and told him to get out of the apartment, according to the affidavit.

Jessica Osburn told police while she was at the Rogers hospital her husband called before the shooting and said he was on his way to the apartment. He knocked on the door and she asked him if he had a gun. He said he didn’t have a gun, the affidavit states.
