PARK CITY — A man shot in the head Monday in Park City remained in critical condition Tuesday, police said.
Park City police say the 37-year-old man was being treated Tuesday at a hospital in Salt Lake County. His name wasn't released.
James Enoch Henfling, 27, of Midvale, is accused of shooting the man early Monday morning after a physical fight escalated in a Park City home near Empire Avenue and 15th Street. Henfling was arrested and booked into the Summit County Jail on suspicion of attempted murder. His bail is set at $250,000.
The emergency was first called in by clerk working at a 7-Eleven at 1400 Park Ave., according to Park City police.
"A clerk at the 7-Eleven in that area called police dispatch to report an individual needing assistance that had run into the store," Park City Police Capt. Rick Ryan said in a statement. "Officers responded to the 7-Eleven and learned from the individual in the store that there was a gunshot victim in a nearby residence."
Police located the victim in the home close by. He was transported to a hospital.
Officers also located Henfling nearby and arrested him, Ryan said. A physical fight between Henfling and the other man, which occurred inside the home, "led to Henfling shooting the victim," Ryan said.
Other details about the shooting were not released Tuesday.
Court records show Henfling has no criminal history in Utah.
