Gene Kennedy reportingA young man was gunned down overnight in front of his girlfriend's apartment in downtown Salt Lake. Police are now searching for two persons of interest.
Witnesses told police they heard two men arguing in the hallway of a apartment building, located near 800 South 400 East, just before a gunshot rang out.
We still don't know what they were fighting about, but police want to talk with Juan Noriega and Florencia Herrera. We were not able to get Herrera's photograph, but both "persons of interest" are in their mid-20s.
Police believe they were either involved in the shooting or know who was.
Last night, a woman found her boyfriend shot to death outside her apartment door at the Victoria House apartment complex. Around midnight, someone shot 26-year-old Rodolfo Soto in the chest. The suspects took off on foot.
Neighbors were not surprised when they heard about the violent crime.
Will Jones, Neighbor: "That place has kids running crazy around there, people in and out all night you know. It doesn't surprise me you know."
Police have also said they've been called out to the Victoria House apartments numerous times. Investigators were certain that witnesses would be key to this case. So far, that has proven to be true.
Meantime, there are still a lot of unanswered questions, like what motivated this crime.
