The University of Utah will hold a vigil this evening to memorialize Lauren McCluskey, a student and track athlete who was killed on campus this week.
The gathering starts at 5 p.m. at the Park Building, 201 S. Presidents Circle, Salt Lake City.
McCluskey, 21, was shot to death Monday night outside the dorms on campus by a man her family said she had dated for a month. Police later found Melvin Rowland, 37, dead inside a Salt Lake City church from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
McCluskey’s parents said he lied to their daughter about his name, age and criminal history.
