SALT LAKE CITY — Police have identified the man who was shot and killed Saturday night during a protest in downtown Salt Lake City, and members of the community are mourning the loss.
Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, 39, was allegedly hit by a stray bullet shot by a “peacekeeping” volunteer at the massive protest. The man told police that he and another volunteer spotted 24-year-old Arturo Roberto Gamboa acting suspiciously before pulling an AR-15 out of his backpack. They said they told him to drop the weapon, but he instead raised the weapon in a “firing” position and began to run toward the crowd.
