Missoula Man Shot. Two Suspects Held Then Cleared
Old Pat Donovan, a longtime rancher in Donovan’s Gulch near Missoula, was shot by unknown assailants yesterday. He walked two miles to a friend’s home, insisted on going to Missoula for care, and showed calm resilience despite his age. Two men arrested near Bonita were later cleared as suspects by authorities. Donovan’s condition improved modestly with appetite returning, and detectives continue to investigate the case.
