Adeeb Nasir and Adil Justice Ahme Nasir Arrested in Magna Following Discovery of Incendiary Device Under News Vehicle
MAGNA, Utah — Two men have been taken into custody after a coordinated law enforcement operation in a Magna neighborhood involving multiple agencies.
Authorities identified one of the suspects as 58-year-old Adeeb Nasir.
The second individual, Adil Justice Ahme Nasir, was also arrested and booked into the Salt Lake County Jail at the same time.
According to a probable cause statement, specialized bomb squads from both the Salt Lake City Police Department and the Unified Fire Authority were dispatched following reports of a suspicious device.
Upon examination, officials confirmed the object was a real incendiary device.
Court records state the device had been placed under a news media vehicle and had been ignited but failed to function as designed.
The investigation is ongoing, and federal authorities are expected to assist local agencies in determining motive, potential targets, and whether additional devices may exist.
Chicago authorities have identified 16-year-old Harmony Mitchell as the victim of a fatal shooting that occurred earlier this week in the Washington Park neighborhood.
The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed her identity following her death on Saturday evening, October 4, 2025, after two days on life support.
According to the Chicago Police Department (CPD), officers responded to multiple calls reporting a gunshot inside a residential building near 56th Street and Michigan Avenue around 7:09 a.m. on Thursday, October 2, 2025.
Initial reports suggested the possibility of a self-inflicted gunshot; however, upon arrival, officers found Harmony inside a bedroom with a gunshot wound to the chin.
The teen was transported to Comer Children’s Hospital, where she was placed on a ventilator in the intensive care unit in critical condition.
Despite the efforts of medical staff, Harmony succumbed to her injuries on Saturday evening.
Detectives are treating the case as a possible accidental shooting, though police have stated they do not believe Harmony shot herself.
A firearm was later recovered in an alley behind the residence, while investigators found a shell casing and a trail of blood inside the apartment.
No arrests have been made at this time, and Area One detectives continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the shooting.
Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward.
