SALT LAKE CITY — One person was shot in the leg early Wednesday morning during a home invasion and robbery in Salt Lake City.

Police officers responded to the West Apartments complex at 750 North and 900 West where a 24-year-old man was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The 911 call came in just before 4:30 a.m., but by the time officers arrived the three male suspects had already fled the scene and officers were not able to locate them.

Police are searching for the suspects and believe they may be linked to an earlier carjacking incident in West Valley City.

Officials say the shooting was an isolated and targeted incident, and there is no danger to the public.
