A 32-year-old South Jordan man was arrested early Sunday after his brother called police and said his younger sibling had shot him, according to a news release from the Summit County Sheriff’s Office.

The two brothers and their families were staying at a hotel in Summit County when the men got into an argument.

The man who was shot says during the dispute, his brother pulled out a gun and began firing it at him. One bullet struck him in the right buttock and the other went into the wall of the hotel room. The man was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
