20-year-old man killed in overnight Sugar House shooting

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — A 20-year-old man was killed in a shooting in Sugar House early Saturday morning, according to Salt Lake City Police.

Shortly before 12:20 a.m. on Sept. 6, SLCPD officers responded to reports of a shooting at 1300 South Wilson Ave. Police arrived on scene and found a 20-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds.

Gold Cross Ambulance and Salt Lake City Fire responded to the scene. Gold Cross transported the man to a local hospital, but despite life-saving efforts, the man died from his injuries.

Detectives conducted a preliminary investigation and found that two groups got into an argument that escalated into a physical fight. During the fight, Cesar Gonzalez Juarez, 24, pulled out a gun and fired multiple shots at the victim, police said.

Juarez was arrested shortly after the shooting. He has been booked into Salt Lake County Jail on homicide charges.

The SLCPD Homicide Squad will work with the medical examiner’s office to confirm the victim’s name, age, and cause of death, as well as notify next-of-kin.

No further information on this case is being released.

Charges are allegations only. All arrested persons are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
