Kyler John Smith, 21, of Myton, Utah, died from a gunshot wound after an April 30, 2020, incident that began at about 2 p.m. Reports say Smith had been pounding on his neighbor’s trailer door. Neighbor Michael Raymond Reyburn, 59, told detectives he was answering the door when a shotgun he was holding discharged through the door and struck Smith in the head. Smith was taken to a Wasatch Front hospital and died early the next morning.

Deputies found Reyburn inside his trailer with a sawed-off, double-barrel .410 shotgun nearby. Reyburn was arrested and booked into the Duchesne County Jail on manslaughter, carrying a concealed short-barreled shotgun, and transaction of a dangerous weapon as a restricted person. A search of Reyburn’s trailer uncovered methamphetamine, marijuana, digital scales, and other drug paraphernalia, leading to additional drug charges. Hours earlier, 19-year-old Nautika Malakhi Noon was arrested after allegedly threatening Smith at his trailer with a pellet gun resembling a high-caliber pistol; Noon was charged with aggravated assault.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who can provide more detail about what happened that afternoon?
