SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Police are responding to a shooting near 660 N Redwood Road in Salt Lakce City and have closed Redwood Road to traffic. They have confirmed multiple individuals were injured and two died as a result of the injuries.
A large amount of emergency vehicles has appeared to have responded to the area of Redwood Road, according to traffic cameras in the area. While law enforcement have not disclosed why they have responded, it appears they have closed Redwood Road from 600 North to 700 North.
Both police vehicles and medical vehicles are on scene
Salt Lake City Police Department PIO Glen Mills confirmed that around 7:36 p.m., a call came in about a shooting at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meetinghouse. There was a funeral taking place at the meetinghouse and an altercation reportedly broke out, leading to shots being fired.
According to Mills, there are at least eight victims, two of which died as a result of their injuries. Three are also in critical condition and three individuals are in unknown condition. Some of the victims were taken via private vehicle to the hospital, which Mills says has complicated the situation.
Police are actively looking for at least one suspect, who fled the scene, and have established a search area from 500 north to 700 north. Mills says there is an active manhunt and they are still determining exactly how many suspects were involved.

Suspected gang activity.
I wonder if some Muslim broke in?
Mormon gangs?
That’s hard to believe….
They said the shooter/shooters ran.
The gunman is still on the run.
It’s one of several options.
A. A tranny
B. a Rabid Somali Muslim
C. Some faggot from antifa
Someone Mormon got dissed?
Wednesday night.
Choir practice?
I’d say it’s options A and C.
From the excerpt:

I pick C
This is the Rise Park area of SLC. Heavily Tongan and Pacific Islander population. And yes, heavy gang activity.
Sorry, Rose Park.
Yes, imported Pacific Islanders via the LDS and they formed gangs .
Yes.
Makes me think that some of the witnesses might know who the shooter is.
Hilarious because true!
Exactly.
I know this area of Salt Lake and I went to high school about 10-15 minutes from there. This area is called Rose Park and is pretty much the armpit of Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County.
This area is a poor area and has been majority Spanish speaking for a long long time. There are a lot of Polynesians too. There is an Asian area about 5 miles south of there.
I assume that a lot of people at the funeral go to church religiously(meaning on Christmas and Easter, if that. Lol)
Gang related, maybe.
Do you think it is gang related?
When it's life or death for someone, the heck with whether that action allegedly *complicated* the situation.
