The shooting happened at the campground near the I-25 and Purcell Boulevard intersection around 11 a.m. on December 29. In January, 54-year-old Steven Hollingworth was arrested for allegedly shooting a 30-year-old man after an argument.

Hollingworth plead guilty to second-degree attempted murder. He is currently being held in the Pueblo County Jail, and will be sentenced on June 11.

The sheriff's office says the man was shot several times that morning and had to be flown to a Colorado Springs hospital with life-threatening injuries.
