An Ogden convenience store owner was shot and killed in his store over the weekend, and police said Tuesday they have detained a person of interest.
Satnam Singh, 65, was working at his store, Super Grocery, at 675 N. Monroe Blvd. in Ogden on Sunday night, according to Ogden police. At about 11:50 p.m., police say, someone entered the store, and, after speaking briefly to Singh, pulled out a pistol and shot the store owner.
Singh died at the scene. The gunman ran out of the store, heading northwest out of the parking lot, police said. Police also said they do not know of a motive for the shooting.
Police shared video surveillance footage Monday that shows a suspect wearing a blue surgical mask, black gloves, a gray Oakland Raiders hoodie, black sweatpants and gray shoes. Police investigators said they believe the suspect may be 16 to 25 years old.
On Tuesday evening, the department said they had detained a person of interest but did not release other details.
Ogden City police’s detectives and ATAC team are working the case with help from the Weber County Homicide Task Force and Weber County CSI.
