According to the Yuma County Sheriff's Office (YCSO), they arrested and booked a 47-year-old Yuma man for first degree attempted murder Friday, October 24.
On September 11, YCSO says deputies responded to the area of Myrtle Avenue and Ninth Street, close to Kiwanis Park, where they found an 18-year-old man with critical injuries.
