Salt Lake City, Utah — On Thursday, January 9, 2025, at approximately 1:41 a.m., near 375 South 765 West a SLCPD officer conducted a traffic stop. During that traffic stop, 32-year-old Chandler Grillone, who was not involved, approached the officer on scene while the officer was in his car. Body-worn camera video shows Grillone confronting, challenging, and attacking the SLCPD officer. The SLCPD officer gave multiple commands to Grillone—who had a weapon. During the incident, after being given repeated commands to stop, Grillone began pointing at and walking toward the occupied police car, and the SLCPD officer fired at least one round. Grillone was struck and subsequently transported to the hospital, where he later died. The occupant of the police car was a community member on a ride-along with the officer. Officers recovered a weapon from Grillone on scene. It was initially reported that there were no additional injuries. However, the SLCPD later learned that the officer involved in this incident received an injury consistent with a sharp-edged object. The officer’s injury is not considered life-threatening. There is no 9-1-1 call associated to this case ..
