Two Salt Lake City Police cars parked along West Temple on Sunday, June 4, 2023, as officers investigate a deadly shooting.A deadly shooting that happened in downtown Salt Lake City early on Sunday became a “very emotionally charged situation” when a large crowd gathered at the scene, said Salt Lake police Chief Mike Brown in a news release.
An SLCPD officer arrived within a minute of the 911 call and found the man on the ground in a parking lot, according to the release. “They are trained to safely manage tense situations and restore order in the most challenging of circumstances, and that’s what happened this morning, and I would like to thank our officers for their professionalism and compassion,” Brown continued.This is the 10th homicide in Salt Lake City so far in 2023, according to the release.Another shooting that happened over the weekend at the same address is being investigated after it prompted a city-wide search for the shooter, a release said.
Police found a suspect and tried to arrest that person, but he ran from officers near the Wells Fargo building, the release said. The 19-year-old man was eventually arrested and accused of fleeing from officers, providing false identification, and public intoxication. He was booked into Salt Lake County jail.
