On the morning of April 28, 2019, 22-year-old Jake Gengelbach was found dead in the parking lot of a Hire’s Big H restaurant in West Valley City, Utah, after reports of gunfire. He had sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the back and shell casings were found at the scene.

Police identified three acquaintances as part of the investigation. Eighteen-year-old Hassan Al-Rekabi was arrested the following day after driving away from a Sandy residence where a SWAT team was preparing to serve a search warrant. After his arrest, Al-Rekabi reportedly admitted to shooting Gengelbach multiple times with a semi-automatic handgun and discarding the weapon while fleeing on foot. Nineteen-year-old Samuel Maile Niu and 21-year-old Bryan Zumaya-Garcia were also taken into custody; both were present during the shooting and were arrested for investigation of obstruction of justice for failing to report the crime.

Al-Rekabi was later charged with murder, discharge of a firearm, and obstructing justice. Is there anyone who knew Jake or who was in that area the night of April 28 who can share what they saw?
