Shortly after 2:30 a.m. on May 21, 2016, a violent home invasion at 1821 E. Hidden Meadows Drive in Salt Lake City ended with the death of 46-year-old Darrin Jackson. Jackson’s son, Jonathan, answered a knock at the door and several people forced their way inside. Darrin came out of a bedroom armed with a pool stick to defend his son and was shot in the head and chest by an intruder who had a firearm. Jonathan Jackson was also shot, suffering a hand injury. The attackers fled the scene.

Police identified three suspects and described the incident as gang-related, saying it grew out of a dispute over recent thefts. All three were arrested and charged in connection with the killing. What details about motive, who fired the fatal shots, and the sequence inside the home remain unclear to the public; anyone with information about that night is asked to come forward.
