Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill announced Wednesday that he has asked the FBI to review the death of Patrick Harmon, who was shot by Salt Lake City Police Officer Clinton Fox in August after Harmon bolted from officers who were trying to handcuff him. The shooting has triggered protests and calls for Gill to be fired and Fox to be prosecuted.
That announcement came a day after public disclosure that Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown fired Officer Jeff Payne and demoted his supervisor for their roles in arresting a University Hospital nurse for refusing to let the officer draw blood from an unconscious patient in July.
