TAYLORSVILLE, Utah (AP) - Authorities in Taylorsville say a man is hospitalized in serious condition after being shot during a confrontation with neighbors.
The Salt Lake Tribune reports the man was kicked out of a child’s birthday party Saturday night for being intoxicated and allegedly carrying a gun.
Unified Police have not released the suspect’s name.
They say the party’s host asked the man to leave and he did not.
