Pete Carlos Robert Ulibarri, 45, was fatally shot after being struck by a bullet while sitting in a car parked in a driveway in West Valley City on the night of May 5, 2022. The shot pierced the vehicle’s rear windshield and struck him in the head; he was taken to a hospital in a private vehicle and died the next day, May 6, 2022.

Investigators say a passing car, possibly a Honda Insight, made a U-turn, returned and slowed as multiple gunshots were fired toward the home near 3500 South and 6400 West. Police describe the attack as a gang-related act of retaliation aimed at occupants of the house connected to a recent arrest in a separate murder in nearby Magna. Authorities emphasize Ulibarri had no gang ties and was an innocent bystander who had been staying at the residence and giving boxing lessons to the children there.

The case remains unsolved: no shell casings were found, surveillance video offered limited detail about the suspect vehicle, and no arrests have been announced. A $10,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to an arrest and conviction. If anyone knew Pete, saw activity near 3500 South and 6400 West that night, or has information about the vehicle involved, please come forward.
