One man was hospitalized and police are looking for other suspects after a shootout outside a Salt Lake home on Wednesday evening.
The incident began shortly after 10 p.m. when a woman who lives at a home near 100 W. Paxton Ave. heard her dogs barking outside and went to investigate. She discovered several men in her yard, and there was a “confrontation,” according to police.
“At that time, a male at the residence came outside. He was armed, and shots were exchanged,” said Det. Michael Ruff of the Salt Lake City Police Department.
One of the men from the group the dogs had been barking at was wounded; he is believed to be the man who fired at the residents.
