PRICE — A Price man was arrested Thursday on charges accusing him of shooting his ex-girlfriend on a street in Price in February.
Just after 6 p.m. on Feb. 17, a woman was confronted by her ex-boyfriend near Carbon Avenue and Main Street. She ran toward the Price Family Pharmacy as the man fired multiple rounds at her, Price police said.
The woman was hit at least one time and was transported to the hospital with serious injuries.
"The male was located in a vehicle with what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The male was transported to the hospital in critical condition," police said at the time.
Matthew Michael Muir, 35, was arrested Thursday on a warrant charging him with attempted aggravated murder, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated robbery, first-degree felonies; plus felony discharge of a firearm, a third-degree felony; and carrying a dangerous weapon under the influence of alcohol/drugs, a class B misdemeanor. The charges were filed in Price's 7th District Court but were sealed.
The warrant for Muir's arrest was filed on May 14, according to court documents, but "the delayed arrest was made following his release from a medical facility," Price police said.
