On the morning of September 3, 2016, police in Midvale, Utah, responded to a reported shooting at the Brighton Place Apartment Complex on Plum Tree Lane. Emergency crews found 21-year-old Deondre Baldwin and 20-year-old Brenner Larson with gunshot wounds; both were taken to a local hospital where Baldwin died and Larson was left in critical condition with a severed spine.

Rodgers was reported to be pointing a gun while Bailey held Larson in a headlock and threatened him with a butane torch. A fight broke out between Bailey and Baldwin, and Rodgers then fired, wounding Larson and fatally shooting Baldwin in the chest.

Police later arrested Rodgers in Ogden and Bailey in the Rose Park area. Rodgers was booked on suspicion of murder and ultimately charged with aggravated murder, aggravated attempted murder, aggravated burglary, and aggravated robbery; Bailey faced charges as an accomplice including murder, aggravated robbery, and aggravated burglary. Did anyone in the area have contact with Deondre or Brenner around that time who could add details about what happened?
