Rock Springs Man Hospitalized with Gunshot Wound

An 18-year-old Rock Springs man was air-transported February 11th to the University of Utah Medical Center following a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Sweetwater County Detective Dick Blust, Jr. says that county deputy sheriffs and Rock Springs police officers were notified that afternoon to be on the lookout for a man armed with a large-caliber handgun who might be suicidal.






The man was spotted sitting on the ground near the top of a ridge.






The name of the man is being withheld pending notification of family members, as the investigation continues.
