Residents in the Herriman Happenings community group reported a heavy police presence near Mountain Ridge on Tuesday evening [1]. Community members described roughly six police vehicles and a helicopter overhead, and said roads were blocked at the top of the hill for about forty minutes.

Those reports are unverified. No agency has confirmed an incident, and the Ledger has not been able to confirm what prompted the response or whether anyone was affected. What would confirm it: a release from Unified Police, a UDOT road closure record for the area, or an on-the-record statement from a named public official.

Unified Police had published no release on the area at the time this community report was compiled.
