SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Feb. 19, 2022 (Gephardt Daily) — The Salt Lake City Police Department is investigating what appears to be a vehicle to vehicle shooting in the city’s near west side.
Police were called to a scene near 25 N. Redwood Rd. and West North Temple about 5:30 p.m. with reports of a man with a gunshot wound.
When first responders arrived, they found a man inside a vehicle with a “shooting-related injury,” according to a SLCPD press release.
Police say the wounded man was taken by ground ambulance to an area hospital in serious condition.
