KEARNS — A man is in fair condition after being shot during a robbery in Kearns.
About 9:45 p.m. Wednesday, a man was shot in his shoulder area, near 4700 South and 4400 West, according to Unified police. Originally, detectives were investigating the case as a possible carjacking attempt. On Thursday, after talking to the victim, police said they are now classifying the case as an aggravated robbery but no longer believe taking the man's car was the primary intent.
The man who was shot remained in a local hospital Thursday in fair condition.
Police are looking for two men who are believed to be high school- or college-aged. Residents are being asked to check their doorbell or home security cameras for two males running from the area at that time Wednesday night.
Anyone with information can call police at 801-840-4000.
