We are aware of an arrest conducted by federal immigration agents, which is unusual at the Salt Lake City International Airport. Incidents like this create fear and uncertainty in our community. The operation was not coordinated with or directed by Salt Lake City Police. We have requested additional information from federal agencies in the interest of promoting transparency, accountability and the well-being of all who live in and visit our city. Salt Lake City remains committed to treating everyone in our community with respect and dignity to the full extent of our power.

Our thoughts are with the family of President Russell M. Nelson and our neighbors who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We are also saddened by the news of a shooting and fire at an LDS meeting house in Michigan.
