An internal incident review conducted by the Salt Lake City Police Department into an inland port protest that turned violent this summer outlines areas for officer improvement but found “no signs” of excessive or inappropriate use of force.
The 12-page report, released to the public on Thursday, is based on a review of more than 100 narrative accounts written by officers, over 340 body camera videos and photos as well as media and building security camera footage.
The review commends officers for “maintaining their composure during a dynamic and increasingly volatile situation, where some of the officers were physically attacked by the demonstrators.
