On the evening of December 9, 2016, 61-year-old Kevin Nelson was fatally shot during a violent home invasion at 3636 Ogden Avenue in South Ogden while visiting his neighbor, 24-year-old Cyle Van Komen. Surveillance footage shows three masked individuals staking out the house beforehand; two entered through the back door while a third stayed outside. One of the intruders opened fire, killing Nelson and Van Komen and critically wounding a 20-year-old roommate who survived.
Investigators say the attack was not random and that the suspects appeared familiar with the residence. The masks, including what looked like a paintball mask on one assailant, made identification difficult. Police do not believe the shooting was gang-related and have repeatedly asked the public for information.
Anyone who knew the victims, the residence, or who recognizes the masked suspects is asked to contact South Ogden Police with any information that could help bring closure to the families.
