SALT LAKE CITY — Demetrius Allen, a well-known bull rider, is dead. His girlfriend shot and killed him in their Salt Lake City apartment.

Fans called him “Ouncie Mitchell,” and the Professional Bull Riders Commissioner said he was a skilled cowboy who was often seen on the Velocity Tour.

Even though Ouncie’s nickname came from the fact that he was born small, he was known for having a lot of heart in his games.

This is a developing story that will be updated.
