FORT DUCHESNE, Uintah County — A Fort Duchesne man who is facing a federal murder charge has surrendered to authorities.
Colin Rian Manning, 24, was expected to make his first appearance in U.S. District Court in Salt Lake City Wednesday.
A Nov. 22 grand jury indictment charges Manning with murder in the second degree while within Indian Country and aiding and abetting, assault causing serious bodily injury while within Indian Country and aiding and abetting, and use of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence.
Manning is the seventh person charged in connection with a June 18 shooting that killed James Edward Carey and critically injured Jared R. Hurley. His case will be tried in federal court because he is an enrolled member of the Ute Indian Tribe and the shooting occurred within the boundaries of the Uintah-Ouray Indian Reservation.
Six other people face charges in state court.
Bruce Silva, the alleged gunman, is charged in 8th District Court with murder and attempted murder, both first-degree felonies.
Three of Silva's brothers — Adrian Silva, Alberto Silva Jr. and Kevin Silva — are each charged with murder and attempted murder, as are Silva's girlfriend Shadow Reed and another woman, Teaunna Cesspooch.
All four Silvas, Reed and Cesspooch also face other felony and misdemeanor charges in state court. They are being held in the Uintah County Jail awaiting separate jury trials.
