A Salt Lake City business is worried about an increasing trend of crime occurring in a downtown area after Sunday morning's suspicious death investigation.
SALT LAKE CITY — Preston Wood stopped by work on Sunday morning and "saw that there was a lot of activity going on" across the street. He could see crime scene tape around a field and police cars parked outside of the Motel 6, which sits across from his building Love Communications on 200 West, between 500 and 600 South.
Wood explained that "something isn't right" often applies across the street from his business, explaining that he often sees concerning activity at the motel. His understanding is that the issues are often connected with drugs, such as overdoses. Some of those times, people have attempted to break into his business, prompting him to get security cameras.
"I was surprised that all of a sudden there's a coroner, there's cops just like , and they're pulling them out of the truck," he said.
