The suspects all now face felony charges in these non-lethal incidents dating from August to October of 2021.
SALT LAKE CITY — Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill released his findings Friday on three separate officer-involved shooting incidents from last year. All three were found to be justified.
He said the suspect, Shilo McCleery, was in the garage when officers instructed him to drop his weapon, but he did not comply. Gill said that’s when Officer Nathan Dugan fired a single shot, but did not hit McCleery, and officers took the suspect into custody. “Mr. Darragh drew a handgun on a holster from his hip and began running towards the entering officers," Gill said.
On Halloween night, officers were called to a domestic violence report in West Jordan. They found suspect Pedro Cortez-Villaloa in front of the home attempting to get into his truck, and officers said he reached inside and tried to grab a gun. A nearby officer, according to Gill, pulled the barrel toward the ground and Sgt. Nick Dailami told him to move, firing a single shot that went through the suspect’s cheeks.
