Police seek trio in Woods Cross home invasion, shooting

WOODS CROSS — Police are still searching for three men involved in a shooting in which a 25-year-old man was wounded.

Woods Cross Police Officer Chris Hoffman said the three men were caught on the victim’s surveillance camera. Those pictures have been released in hopes of catching the men.

So far, police have no leads on who the men are, Hoffman said.

The shooting does not appear to be a random occurrence, nor is it gang related, Hoffman said.

The three men, who appear to be in their mid to late 20s, knocked on the victim’s door at his home at 560 W. 1000 South at 10:40 p.m. on Jan. 11, Hoffman said. The men asked for a specific person and when the resident said he didn’t know that individual, a fight broke out.

One of the men had gone inside the house and he shot the man who answered the door in the arm.

Hoffman said the victim, who has not been identified, is still in the hospital. Police do not have a motive for the shooting, but did say the victim did not know the three men personally.

The three men are described as either African American or Polynesian.

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call police at 801-298-6000.
