100 deadliest days claims life of Heber City man, family working to take him home to Mexico
HEBER CITY, Utah () — The 100 deadliest days started this weekend, and it proved to be busy for Utah Highway Patrol. As of Monday, troopers made 77 DUI arrests, responded to 172 crashes and investigated one fatal crash. Sadly, since then, more people have lost their lives on Utah roads. One of those was a man who's called Heber City home since 2017 and worked to support his parents in Mexico, Eliezer Ramirez. The Ramirez family lost their brother in a car wreck this Tuesday. If it wasn't hard enough already to mourn the loss of a loved one, they are now focused on how to get him home to their parents in Mexico. 'I didn't believe it until I got there to see him,' Gabriel Ramirez stated. 'I saw him when they brought him down. For me it was hard, very hard.' Utah family prepares to bury WWII pilot who was MIA for 80 years Gabriel is Eliezer's older brother. Gabriel has lived in Heber City for 18 years. His brother joined him in 2017. He told ABC4 that having his brother here was the best. He didn't want to show his face on camera because he was emotional while speaking about his brother, but he wanted to make sure he told Eliezer's story. Gabriel described Eliezer: 'My brother is a person who is easy-going, friendly, he really liked to play with the kids [Gabriel's four children], have fun, dance and work.' 'We all came here to do well, to work, to get ahead, to help my parents get ahead,' Gabriel said while explaining what brought the brothers to Heber City. Eliezer worked as a painter and helped support his parents in Mexico. 'They are destroyed,' Gabriel added in regard to how his parents are coping. Idle Isle Café up for sale, former employees speak out The family is holding a mass for Eliezer in Park City on Friday. However, that won't be their final goodbye. They are raising money () to take Eliezer back to Michoacán so he can be buried near their parents' home. It won't be an easy feat. After arriving at the nearest airport, they'll have to drive him about six hours. That normally wouldn't sound like much, but their trek will take them over undeveloped, dirt roads (there is an example of those roads in the attached video). However, it'll be worth it to bring some closure to their parents. 'There are losses that one is never going to overcome,' added Gabriel. Meet the new faces at Utah's Hogle Zoo!

BLISS, Idaho (ABC4) — A 69-year-old Ogden man died in a fiery crash Wednesday after colliding with a semi-truck on I-84 near Bliss, Idaho. According to Idaho State Police, just after 12:30 p.m. the Ogden man was driving a 2019 Nissan Frontier when he crossed over the highway median.

Lt. Gov. Henderson gets more death threats over Primary signature gathering issues — How will they be handled?
SALT LAKE CITY () — After a meeting of the Utah legislature's Rules Review and General Oversight Committee that discussed the Cox campaign's signature gathering, critics of Lieutenant Governor Deidre M. Henderson have taken to social media to voice their disapproval via comments that included death threats. At the May 22 meeting, the committee discussed changes to Utah's signature verification process. Two supporters of Phil Lyman, including his running mate Natalie Clawson, were each given 10 minutes to present to the committee where they repeated claims that Gov. Spencer Cox's campaign did not gather enough signatures during the 2024 election, and accused Lt. Gov. Henderson's office, which contracts signature verification with the Davis County Clerk's Office, of malfeasance. On May 27, Sophie Anderson, a former plaintiff in a lawsuit seeking access to sensitive election materials that Utah's appellate court ruled are protected, posted a photo of Lt. Gov. Henderson on X/Twitter and mentioned her account, asking, 'What should be the penalty for those who defraud elections?' The post elicited approximately 80 responses in roughly 24 hours, with some users saying Henderson committed treason, others saying she should face time in jail or prison, while others called for harsher punishments, including death. PREVIOUSLY: Illegitimate election claims fly as legislative meeting mulls changes to Utah's signature verification Several users posted GIFs or photos of nooses, another posted a photo of an electric chair, and some responses simply said 'Death' or 'Public executions.' reached out to the lieutenant governor's office, which said the office does not comment on her security. The online threats against the Lt. Governor were posted roughly a week after a man was arrested for allegedly . spoke with the Utah Department of Public Safety about how it responds to online threats. Captain Tanner Jensen, the director of the Statewide Information Analysis Center at the DPS, said each threat posted online is taken 'very seriously.' 'With this situation, it's concerning — very serious — and we don't take these types of threats lightly,' Jensen said of the threats to the Lt. Governor. Utah man arrested for allegedly stalking, harassing Salt Lake mayor over pride-themed city flag designs Jensen said that analysts and agents evaluate online posts to see if what is posted is protected by the First Amendment or if it is a 'true threat.' He also said there is a difference between those 'true threats' and 'political hyperbole.' Each post is evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and then it is determined if continued monitoring is needed for the users who made those posts. Jensen said there are ways to monitor and assess threats, and to analyze the behaviors of people to see if there is a 'pathway to violence.' 'We definitely pay close attention to our elected officials in Utah and understand that they are a target of threats,' Jensen said. He said that DPS is often notified by social media companies when the platforms identify potential threats. Another way that the department learns of concerning posts is when members of the public raise concerns. 'If you see something suspicious and concerning, please let law enforcement know, and we'll evaluate it,' Jensen said. Jensen encouraged the community to 'stand up against this type of threatening language and hate.' Abigail Jones and Nick Butts contributed to this report. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
