In the winter of 2016 a shooting in Salt Lake City left three young men dead. On the evening of February 18, 20-year-old Angel Lopez-Salinas, his 19-year-old brother Lauro Raul Lopez-Salinas, and 17-year-old Armando Cuenca-Curiel were inside a Ford Explorer parked at 325 E. Park Creek Lane when an altercation ended in gunfire. Cuenca-Curiel was pronounced dead at the scene; Angel suffered gunshot wounds to the head and right bicep and died two days later.

Police arrested 19-year-old Gerald Radckiff Grant, who had a gunshot wound to his leg, and charged him with three counts of aggravated murder. Investigators recovered a black semi-automatic pistol, shell casings, marijuana, brass knuckles, and multiple cellphones in the SUV. Grant told authorities he acted in self-defense, saying the three had tried to rob and had beaten him; an informant said they had put Grant in contact with the others for a marijuana transaction.

What details about that night or these men’s connections have been missed that might help clarify what happened?
