The investigation into the Aug. 15 shooting at MontanaFair is continuing, but law enforcement have made no arrests so far, Yellowstone County Sheriff Mike Linder said Tuesday.
Linder said in an email to MTN News that deputies have identified some of the individuals involved but are still seeking others. The challenge, Linder said, is finding all those people.
The victim and the shooter likely knew each other, and Linder said neither had an intent of widespread violence at the fairgrounds.
Linder did not confirm the condition of the man who was shot. Initial reports indicated he was shot in the leg.
