A rash of gun violence in Salt Lake City had the police chief speaking out Tuesday, hoping steps can be taken to prevent future shootings.
This comes after one person was killed and three others were wounded during a shooting at an apartment complex near Redwood Road Monday evening.
"I can't imagine what it was like for parents at that apartment complex who had children outside playing in the courtyard when bullets began to fly," said Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown. So far this year, he said there have been about 30 robberies in which a firearm was used. He went on to say that there have been nearly 60 aggravated assaults involving a gun and more than 28 drive-by shootings since Jan. 1.
"We've put officers very strategic in some [places] we call 'hot blocks' within our community, through the community here, to work on some of these things, so it's something that we know is going to occur and we're trying to do everything we possibly can to mitigate that," he said.
