SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Aug. 24, (Gephardt Daily) — Salt Lake City police have made a third arrest, this time in Ogden, believed related to an Aug. 10 shooting downtown that left two injured.
Friday detectives from the Salt Lake City Police Department Gang Unit arrested 30-year-old Devin Bradley in Ogden, the department said Saturday.
The Ogden Police Department’s SWAT team and gang unit assisted. During the arrest, detectives executed a court-authorized search warrant, uncovering drugs, weapons, and other potential evidence possibly related to the August 10 shooting investigation.
Detectives booked Bradley into the Weber County Jail on outstanding warrants.
Investigation began around 12:55 a.m. on Saturday, August 10, when officers, on an unrelated call, heard multiple gunshots south of their location.
Officers determined the shooting occurred at State Street and Exchange Place, considered the heart of the city’s downtown bar entertainment district. “Detectives are still investigating whether there is any connection between the initial fight and the shooting,” according to Saturday’s press release.
The first arrest tied to the Aug. 10 shooting came the next day, with a 32-year-old man detained in Taylorsville, his name withheld from Saturday’s press release. Detectives booked him into the Salt Lake County Metro Jail on numerous felony charges unrelated to the shooting investigation. “However, he is suspected of being involved in the shooting, and criminal charges against him are pending.”
On Wednesday, August 21, SLCPD gang unit detectives safely arrested 22-year-old Raymond Gallegos. Detectives booked Gallegos into the Salt Lake County Metro Jail on charges of unlawful possession of a dangerous weapon as a restricted person and unlawful possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. “Detectives have established probable cause indicating that Gallegos was in illegal possession of a firearm during the fight near 320 South State Street.”
The Aug. 10 shooting resulted in a critical injury to a man, police said, now expected to survive as he remains in the hospital. His name is not being released because he is facing felony criminal charges in an unrelated, out-of-state matter.
The shooting also injured a 24-year-old woman. Doctors treated and released her the same day.
“Anyone with information on this case, including those with photos or video, is asked to call 801-799-3000 or submit an anonymous tip using the CityProtect App and reference case number 24-182377.”
