A 25-year-old Eagle Mountain man is facing felony charges after prosecutors say he opened fire into a crowd outside a Salt Lake City nightclub, hitting one person in the leg. According to court documents, the shooting happened on March 1 in the parking lot just north of the club at 1051 E. 2100 South. The suspect is identified in charging papers as Diego Campos-Andrade.
As reported by KSL, prosecutors in Third District Court have charged Campos-Andrade with aggravated assault resulting in serious injury, a second-degree felony, along with 12 counts of discharge of a firearm. Investigators say one man was struck in the leg and officers later collected a dozen spent shell casings from the scene.
The shooting is linked to 1051 E. 2100 South in Salt Lake City, an address tied to a licensed nightclub. According to the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control license list, Club Karamba is registered at that location, which matches the address referenced in the criminal case file.
How investigators say it unfolded
Detectives say surveillance footage provided by the club owner shows roughly 20 people gathered in the parking lot when Campos-Andrade appears to shove another man, setting off a physical fight. After several minutes, the charging documents state, he pulls out a firearm and begins firing into the ground and toward the feet of nearby people before one round strikes a man in the leg. Investigators say they identified Campos-Andrade by interviewing witnesses and reviewing cellphone data, according to KSL.
Charges and possible penalties
Campos-Andrade now faces multiple felony counts that, if proved, could bring significant prison time under Utah law. A second-degree felony in Utah is punishable by one to 15 years in prison and fines of up to $10,000, while a third-degree felony can lead to up to five years in prison, according to the Utah Courts penalties guide.
What’s next
The case is currently pending in Third District Court, where prosecutors are moving forward on the charges outlined in the information filed with the court. Court documents and local reporting indicate that surveillance video from the club and digital records, including cellphone data, were central to how investigators built the case now pending against Campos-Andrade.
