Dalton Joe Wood, 29, was shot and killed on a North Ogden street in the early hours of February 8, 2020. Police responded after calls of shots fired and found Wood on 432 E. 1700 North with a pistol wound to his chest and a shotgun blast to his lower extremities. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Witnesses heard two gunshots and saw two people flee in a dark-colored SUV. Investigators identified three suspects and arrested Ryan Joseph Dash, Angela Lynn Valdez, and Brian Christopher Jenson the next day. Dash later admitted firing both a handgun and a shotgun, saying Wood had his hands in his pockets and did not brandish a weapon. Authorities say the firearms had been stolen days earlier and that Dash tried to dispose of evidence after the shooting.

Reports name a prior conflict between Dash and Wood’s brother as the apparent motive. If anyone has information about Dalton Wood, the meeting that led to his death, or the dark SUV seen leaving the scene, please come forward.
