Man dies from apparent self-inflicted gunshot at Park City Gun Club

Authorities said the initial investigation indicates the self-inflicted gunshot was "intentional."

PARK CITY, Utah – A man was found shot and unconscious at the Park City Gun Club on Saturday evening, in one of the club’s shooting lanes, according to the Summit County Sheriff’s Office (SCSO).

Deputies and emergency medical services responded to the gun range, located at 4285 N Forestdale, around 8 p.m. on March 1, 2025, after receiving a report from club staff. Despite life-saving efforts, the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

“The Summit County Sheriff’s Office is deeply saddened by this loss and extends its heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of the deceased during this incredibly difficult time,” the department said in a statement.

Ongoing Investigation

The initial investigation suggests that no one else was present in the immediate area before the shooting, and detectives believe the gunshot was self-inflicted and intentional. However, the case remains under investigation pending a report from the Office of the Medical Examiner.

Authorities have identified the victim only as an adult male with residential ties to the Summit County area.

This is a developing story, and more details may emerge as the investigation continues.
