A dispute over proposed data center zoning changes at a Utah County Planning Commission meeting escalated into a physical altercation involving law enforcement and attendees. Video footage captured by local media showed deputies forcibly removing a woman from her seat, leading to her arrest after she was taken to the ground. The Utah County Sheriff’s Office stated that the woman resisted removal, struck a deputy in the groin, and was assisted by two others who attempted to block her egress.

The woman was subsequently booked into jail on charges including disrupting a meeting, interfering with an arresting officer, and assaulting a police officer.
