The Trinity County Sheriff’s Office has revealed that a shooting in October in the Big Bar area is believed to have been justified. The shooting was reported on October 25th. The victim was able to speak briefly to law enforcement before being transported to a hospital. Search warrants were served at a location where a car had crashed into a fence, but the shooter had apparently already fled the scene. At last word the victim was in stable condition. The sheriff’s office eventually found the man who fired the gun and they released him after a brief investigation.
