(WHAS11) - Police are investigating after a Southern Indiana man shot two people on his property late last night.  It happened just outside of Austin, Indiana.

A business owner near Austin says he’s been robbed recently, and last night his son shot two men on the property that he thought were trying to rob his Modular Home business.

The police were called and when they got there, they found two men in a nearby field with gunshot wounds.  It is not clear at this point whether or not the two were just trespassing, or trying to rob the man.

The men were taken to University of Louisville Hospital and the police are still investigating. Both men have criminal pasts ranging from marijuana charges to burglary and stolen property. They are not suspects and no charges have been filed at this time.
