Salt Lake City police said​ in a post to social media that the shooting was "possibly associated" with a "No Kings" demonstration.

An estimated 10,000 people were in attendance at the “No Kings” rally that began in Pioneer Park and marched north through the downtown area, the Salt Lake City Police Department said. Gunfire was heard at around 8 p.m., with video posted online showing protesters fleeing in terror.

After a shooting during a “No Kings” protest in Salt Lake City, Utah leaders say they're thankful for those protesters who remained peaceful and for the first responders to rushed to the scene.
