Pasco man 1 of 2 shot Monday night

A Pasco man is recovering after he was shot Monday night.

The Yakima County Sheriff’s Office said the unnamed 32-year-old was one of two people who arrived at Astria Sunnyside Hospital with gunshot wounds.

The other, a 30-year-old Arizona man, died shortly after arriving.

Deputies learned about the shooting when the Arizona man’s girlfriend called 911 to report it at 11:29 p.m. She could not say where she was.

She arrived at the hospital with the two men a short time later, the sheriff’s office said.

The Pasco man’s injuries were described as serious but not life-threatening.

Sheriff’s detectives are investigating.
