On a summer evening in Ogden, Utah, the life of 18-year-old Corbin Samuel McGuire, a White/Caucasian male, was tragically cut short. On August 20, 2015, Weber 911 received a distressing call about a shooting on the 2300 block of Van Buren Avenue. First responders arrived to find McGuire in the street, having been shot multiple times. He was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition.
Despite medical efforts, Corbin Samuel McGuire succumbed to his injuries three days later.
The investigation by the Ogden City Police Department revealed that McGuire was riding his bicycle when a silver car drove past, and an occupant opened fire. The shooting is being investigated as a possible gang-related incident. Witnesses at the scene described a potential suspect vehicle, but this lead has not yet resulted in the identification of any perpetrators. The case quickly grew cold as investigators from the Ogden-Metro Gang Unit reported a lack of cooperation from potential witnesses.
To this day, the homicide of Corbin Samuel McGuire remains unsolved, and no arrests have been made in connection with his death. Law enforcement officials have repeatedly appealed to the public for any information that might lead to a breakthrough in the case. His case is listed among Ogden's cold cases, a painful reminder of a young life lost to gun violence and a killer, or killers, who have yet to be brought to justice. The Ogden City Police Department continues to seek tips from the public to help solve this lingering investigation.
