City Cast Salt Lake
☀️ The best pools & splash pads
June 23, 2025
Hey, Salt Lake. Here's some news from the weekend: Arturo Gamboa, the man arrested after the deadly shooting at the "No Kings" protest, has been released from jail as the investigation continues.
His attorney argues Gamboa was "unlawfully detained" and that video shows he never brandished the rifle he was legally carrying when a volunteer security member opened fire. We'll keep you updated as the story develops.
