University Of Utah Healthcare Workers To Organize

Health care workers within the University of Utah's medical system are forming a union. Employees announced their plans to the University of Utah Health Tuesday morning. Union organizers are worried about wages, staffing levels and benefits and claim the university has been "insufficient" when addressing their concerns.

Investigation Underway In Ilegal Moose Killing

Utah Division of Wildlife conservation officers are investigating after a bull moose was illegally killed near Duchesne. Wildlife officials determined the moose was shot between October 7th and 12th, with the bullet traveling through both of the animal's shoulders, impeding its ability to walk. Conservation officers say people were hunting in the area at the time, but believe the animal was intentionally shot and left to waste, rather than it being a case of hunters losing track of an animal after shooting it. Anyone with information on the moose's killing is asked to contact the Utah Division of Wildlife.
