LAYTON, Utah (AP) - Layton police say an officer shot and wounded a man who fired gunshots several times at a home during a three-hour standoff that ended early Saturday morning.
Lt. Travis Lyman says no one else was injured and that the 44-year-old man is expected to survive his injuries.
His identity wasn’t released.
Lyman says the man reportedly was upset about a domestic situation, had been drinking, had both a handgun and a rifle and fired shots both while in the home and while outside.
