James Edward Saccato, 63, of West Point, Utah, was killed after a road rage confrontation in Clearfield on the evening of June 3, 2024. According to charging documents, the incident began on State Route 193 when the Chevy truck Saccato was driving allegedly cut off a Ford Ranger driven by 34-year-old Justin Kent Doman. Saccato is accused of brake-checking Doman multiple times; Doman honked, made a rude gesture, and then rear-ended Saccato’s truck as the vehicles neared an intersection.

After Saccato drove away, Doman called 911 and pursued at high speed, at one point ramming the side of Saccato’s truck. Surveillance video reportedly shows the two vehicles speeding through residential streets with tires squealing. The pursuit ended when Saccato stopped, exited his truck unarmed, and approached Doman’s driver-side window. A witness said Saccato bent down to speak to the driver; Doman then fired a single shot from inside his truck, striking Saccato in the chest. Saccato died at the scene.

Doman remained at the scene and cooperated with police; investigators later continued gathering evidence. Authorities arrested Doman on June 20, 2024, and charged him with first-degree murder, with prosecutors saying Doman’s actions provoked the final confrontation and that he was the aggressor. Does anyone have information about the events on State Route 193 or the neighborhoods where the pursuit took place?
