City officers, as well as Saline County deputies and Eldorado police personnel, responded and found Scott lying in a yard with multiple gunshot wounds to his person. He was, according to press information, transferred from the scene to a local hospital; our sources this morning, however, advised that he was taken by helicopter to another facility for treatment.
