The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office is investigating a shooting Friday in Libby.

Lois Kay Olbekson, 57, called 9-1-1 at 10:17 p.m. Friday and told dispatchers she shot her son-in-law in the chest with a .22-caliber handgun after he threatened her, Sheriff Roby Bowe said in a news release Sunday.

Deputies arrived at Olbekson’s residence in the 200 block of Glendora Avenue in Libby three minutes after the call and found Michael Leonard Roloff, 31, of Kalispell lying unresponsive in the driveway in front of the home.

Roloff was transported by ambulance to Cabinet Peaks Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead less than an hour later.

Bowe said Olbekson hasn't been arrested or charged, and the investigation into the shooting is ongoing.
