FORT BRIDGER, Wyo. — Two suspects are in custody and one person is dead after a shooting took place at a home near Fort Bridger Rendezvous in Wyoming.

Officers responded to the shooting on Saturday at 5:48 p.m., according to a Facebook post made by the Uinta County Sherriff’s Office. When police got to the residence located east of Fort Bridger Rendezvous, they found a person who had died at the residence.
