The Dalles, OR - One man remains in critical condition after a verbal dispute ended in a shooting Sunday near The Dalles.

Thirty-year old Josh McCaleb's family says its all over a disagreement about water between a landlord and his tenant.

The Wasco County Sheriff's Office is releasing frew details, saying only that the shooting on Five Mile Road south of town was a landlord/tenant dispute over water.

But Josh McCaleb's friends and family say the landlord had come over Saturday night and reported McCaleb to the police for growing marijuana.

But apparently McCaleb has a medical marijuana card and authorities did not arrest him. Late Sunday morning the landlord reportedly returned to the house on Five Mile Road with his son, who carried a gun.

McCaleb's girlfriend was there and says the landlord tried to rough her up after she started videotaping the confrontation.

That's when shots were fired. McCaleb was shot once in the chest; his dog, a rottweiler, was shot to death.

McCaleb remains on life support, and despite an eyewitness account, no one has been arrested or charged in the shooting of Josh McCaleb, leaving his Wasco County family sad and angry.
