The Naturita man who was shot by a Montrose County sheriff's deputy after being pulled over on Highway 145 has been released from the hospital and jail.

Tryllen Richards, 32, was arrested on Thursday, February 7, following a traffic stop in western Montrose County.

He's being charged with assault in the first degree, felony menacing and speeding, according to authorities.
