NORTH OGDEN — "Hey, what's up?" Jeffrey Roberts casually asked from the porch after his brother Scott Roberts opened his front door.
On that day, Jeffrey Roberts left his home in Long Beach, California, and drove to his brother's home in North Ogden at 3220 Mountain Road. Roberts parked his van in the driveway. He is first recorded on the doorbell camera at 7:11 p.m. and is seen walking toward the door with his left hand in his jacket pocket.
Jeffery Roberts then asks if their mother is in the house. Scott Roberts tells him that their mother is living in Missouri and another woman is helping with her care."Really?" Jeffrey Roberts replies while reaching inside his jacket. He quickly pulls out a gun and begins shooting at his brother without warning. At least eight shots are heard on the doorbell camera.
After Scott Roberts was shot, the doorbell camera records a heavy-breathing Jeffrey Roberts walking back outside to his van and returning while holding a shotgun in one hand and a bag in the other. Five minutes later, he walks back out of the house while still holding the shotgun, and is talking to someone on the phone. In the background, smoke detectors are going off inside the home.
The final confrontation was recorded by the doorbell camera. There is a barrage of gunfire as Jeffrey Roberts walks out of the house shooting a handgun while three officers return fire. Roberts then falls to the ground on the sidewalk leading to the doorway.
