Officials said that two men who were part of the event’s “peacekeeping team” were detained Saturday after one of the “peacekeepers” allegedly fired the shot that fatally injured Ah Loo. Arturo Gamboa, 24, was also arrested and booked into the Salt Lake County Metro Jail on a murder charge.

The “peacekeepers” told police that they saw Gamboa move away from the crowd and begin manipulating an AR-15-style rifle. It prompted them to draw their guns and order him to drop the weapon, police said. However, Gamboa ran into the crowd, holding his gun in a “firing position,” leading one of the "peacekeepers" to fire three shots. One of the shots struck Gamboa while the other hit Ah Loo, police said.
