ORIGINAL STORY:
The daughter of a La Paz County Supervisor was involved in a shooting in the early hours of Sunday morning, according to law enforcement.

At approximately 12:30am a domestic disturbance call led to a male subject being found with an apparent gunshot wound and taken to hospital. Berlynn Irwin, daughter of elected District 3 Supervisor Holly Irwin, was reportedly involved in the shooting, but as of the time of publication law enforcement had declined to elaborate further.
The La Paz County Sheriff’s Department is not dealing with the case, according to a Monday press release, because Irwin’s father is a Sheriff’s Department employee. Lake Havasu City Police Department will be handling the investigation, including a search warrant and interviews.
“Upon realizing the connection with the Department and the severity of the matter, the Lake Havasu City Police Department investigative unit was requested to take over the investigation,” the press release said. “This will conclude our involvement with this case. We will not be providing any investigative assistance and/or press releases. The case has been forwarded to LHCPD in its entirety.”
This is a developing story. Parker Live has reached out to the Lake Havasu City Police Detective handling the case for more information. Please check back for any further updates.
So sorry for the parents.
So sorry for the parents
Is she okay?
As far as we’re aware she was not the person who was shot.
jen. She is ok.
Charles Hanlan thank god.
Jennifer De Jordy my thoughts exactly
La paz sheriff Dept made a great decision on this but it’s very sad for all those involved
Hope she’s ok. Prayers
So nobody here ####n cares about the guy she shot???
Not really I know her and done then she just randomly shoot some dude for no reason he probably deserved it
“She” is fine! She did the shooting. How about praying for her vet bf who got shot!
I know her and she probably didn’t just shoot some dude for no reason
Chelsea Muhle Right, I agree. I hope he is ok
Whoa no need to come at me!! Prayers for all!! Nastiness is unneccessary.
Why is everyone asking if “she” is ok? She isnt the one that got shot the man was! Shell be fine being taken care of by the state. Does any one know if the gentleman that was shot is ok?
Sad the whole situation. Do hope he survives and os ok. No nastiness meant here but will be interesting to see the outcome considering MO and dad’s jobs in the County.
You can feel bad for him but their had to be a reason for what happen. Like they said she wouldn’t just do it for no apparent reason. I hope shes alright and everything is worked out
Clearly some people need to mind they’re own business. My sister doesn’t have to explain anything to anyone. Some of you need to read up on self defense I am disgusted with the immaturity of some of these comments, unfortunately not everyone has decency and respect for everyone involved. Picking sides doesn’t help the matter and is irrelevant to the situation. Making derogatory comments only draws negative attention towards yourself so congratulations , thank you to all the adults who have taken the time to pray for both families, it is greatly appreciated.
I went to college with your sister. She’s always been such a sweet person. I’m praying for your family and everyone involved.
That’s my sister you guys. I know the guy. Yes I hope he pulls through of course…no one deserves to die. But what is done is done.
Everyone just needs to chill and let my family take a breath. It’s hard enough as it is.
Prayers. We will hear all sides of this story soon enough.
We all make mistakes, there is only one judge, and that’s the Lord Jesus Christ, praying for the whole family. Just remember the Lord has his arms around all of you.
Folks just relax,thankfully we have what’s called due process..bare in mind,anyone is capable of about anything.if you must judge…then start with yourself.pray people
Keeping Berlynn and all your family in our Prayers, We love you Berlynn!
We love you Berlynn Irwin your picture on the front page of the paper was so wrong!!!!!
Berlynn Irwin, we love you. I am keeping, you, your family, and Anthony and his family in my prayers. I pray for a speedy recovery for Anthony and I sent big hugs filled with lots of love to you.
Hang in there and stand strong.
Those of us that know Berlynn know she is a beautiful sweet young lady and this is a tragic event for all involved. Her Pirate Den family are here for her!
This is Anthony Allen, the one wounded in this incident. Also the one responsible. Not that it’s any of your business, but what I find ironic is how you took the opportunity to include the entire Irwin family. You utilized your little blog to attack an innocent family. It’s bad enough that you mentioned the victim in this case but you also mentioned holly and Larry and that wasn’t good enough, you included Sherrie by putting a picture of her. Why not mention Anthony Allen…ill tell you why, because you’re using this article for political purposes… Maybe if you were from America you’d care about the people in it. Shame on you John wright.
Anthony: Several ways you’re wrong. (1) When there’s a shooting, yes, it’s our business, as it is for any local media anywhere it happens. (2) Reporting this story isn’t ‘attacking’, it’s reporting the story. How you construe it as an attack is beyond me. (3) What ‘political purposes’ are you talking about? The reason the article doesn’t mention Anthony Allen is because law enforcement did not provide us with your name, presumably to protect your privacy. Thanks for adding your name for the public record.
