OGDEN, Utah — Ogden Police identified the man who died after a standoff last weekend.

Police said Aaron Matthew Collier, 35, died during the incident. The police have not released the cause of death, pending the result of the medical examiner’s report.

The standoff occurred shortly after 2 a.m. on Sunday at a home near 100 South and 4th Street.

Police were called to the home for an alleged domestic dispute. When police arrived to conduct the investigation, they say a man fired shots at them when they entered the home.

Police say the suspect barricaded himself inside and refused to come out.

Police say after SWAT negotiations ceased, entry was eventually made inside the home where officers found the suspect dead.

Weber County Attorney’s Office is continuing to investigate the incident.
