Man killed in Taylorsville shooting

A man is dead after being shot Sunday morning in Taylorsville.  Officials with Unified Police responded to a report of a shooting at an apartment complex around 10:10 a.m., and upon arrival found the victim, Toussaint Tyler, 30, of Taylorsville, had been shot. Tyler was rushed to a nearby hospital in critical condition, but later died from his injuries at the hospital he had been taken to.
