SOUTH SALT LAKE, Utah — A suspect in last week's double-shooting at a South Salt Lake TRAX station has been taken into custody, Utah Transit Authority police announced Monday.

Following a multi-day search, the juvenile suspect turned himself into authorities and was taken into custody. Because of the suspect's age, no other information regarding his identity is being released.

Two people were shot Thursday following an incident at the Meadowbrook Station. An altercation between three people led to a fight on the station platform and onto the tracks itself. It is believed at some point the suspect pulled a gun and shot the other two individuals before fleeing.

One shooting victim has been upgraded from critical condition to stable condition while the other remains in serious condition.

On Friday, UTA Police has asked for the public's help in identifying the suspect involved the shooting.
