A man was arrested Sunday after a shooting in a West Valley City backyard that left one man dead and another wounded.
The deceased was identified by police as 35-year-old Jason Bull, of West Valley City.
The suspect, Marshall Lee Herron, 36, was booked into jail on suspicion of homicide, according to a West Valley City Police Department news release.
A jail booking statement says Herron told officers that he shot Bull.
Officers responded about 2:15 a.m. to a 911 call of shots being fired in the area of 4300 West and 4700 South, the news release says.
When police arrived, they found a deceased Bull, who had been shot multiple times. The other shooting victim, a 32-year-old man, was taken to a local hospital in fair condition. He is expected to survive and talked to investigators, police said.
The booking statement says that after the three men fought, Herron went inside his house and got a gun. He then came back outside and shot Bull, the statement says.
All parties who were interviewed say drugs and alcohol were involved in the incident, according to the statement.
