No charges have been filed in Cotton County after OSBI agents say a Randlett man shot his son to death Monday night.



Emergency responders and deputies were called to a home in the 1400 block of Avenue E in Randlett around 8 p.m.

That’s when they found 51-year-old Rhey Sales shot multiple times.



OSBI officials say the man was taken to Wichita Falls and pronounced dead at the hospital.



Investigators say he was living with his father, 75-year-old Mager Sales.



They say Monday night, several objects thrown by Sales struck his father, who is in a wheelchair.



OSBI agents say Rhey had threatened to kill his father several times.



The father, Mager, told investigators he feared for his life, and shot his son.

“We do not determine whether it’s self defense or not self defense. What we have to do is pull in all the information, all the evidence, put into a written format and give that to the DA. The DA then determines whether or not this shooting was self defense,” Jessica Brown with OSBI said.

No arrests have been made in this case, and OSBI officials say as they continue to interview family members, they will report to the Cotton County District Attorney.
