An off-duty firefighter happened to be driving through a Sandy neighborhood Tuesday when several shots were fired. Salt Lake City Fire Captain Tony Allred recounted the moments he sprang into action. He was driving his 8-year-old daughter to gymnastics when traffic got backed up on Alta Canyon Drive. “I saw a male come around an SUV and I heard another very loud shot, and the male was down, and that's when I knew it was a shooting scene, not just a car accident," Allred said. Worried a shooter might still be out there, Allred parked his car away from the scene and left his daughter and dog inside.
