OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 10/09/2024, Taylorsville police officer Jimmy Jeremy Haas followed a pickup truck connected to a vehicle that had reportedly fled from Salt Lake City police earlier in the day. Haas followed the truck into a parking lot and blocked it in with an unmarked police SUV. Police said the driver reversed and rammed Haas’s vehicle. Another officer then used a patrol vehicle to pin the truck against a building. Prosecutors said Haas shined a flashlight through the rear window and fired one shot into the truck, striking the driver. The driver fled on foot and was later found unresponsive nearby. He died from the gunshot wound. Prosecutors stated no weapons were found on the man or inside the vehicle. On 05/14/2026, Salt Lake County prosecutors charged Haas with second degree felony manslaughter, alleging the shooting violated department policy and accepted law enforcement standards.
