SALT LAKE CITY — Salt Lake City Police are looking for a pair of suspects after a shooting took place at a party early Saturday morning.

According to a press release sent out by SLCPD, dispatchers received multiple calls of gunshots in the area of 1700 South 4100 West in an industrial area of the city just before 1:30 a.m.

Once on scene, officers found bullet casings in the parking lot of a nearby business as well as evidence of a large party.
