BAKER - A city worker accused of getting into a shootout with his coworker has been booked for attempted murder more than a month after the shooting sent him to the hospital. 

The Baker Police Department said Trenton Brown, 20, had gotten into an argument with a coworker at the city's workshop, according to witnesses. Brown allegedly left work to retrieve a gun, and returned later to catch up with the victim who had also left the business. 

The victim told officers Brown fired at him, but he fired back with a gun he keeps on him at work "for protection." The two were reportedly involved in a shootout, but officers determined Brown to be the aggressor. Brown was hit during the shootout and taken for medical attention. 

The coworker was issued a summons for illegally carrying weapons on his person while at work for the city. 

Brown was arrested for attempted second-degree murder and illegal use of weapons.
