Ogden High cheerleaders suspended, accused of hazing

Nine Ogden High School girls have been suspended after allegedly hazing new cheerleaders. The investigation is ongoing as the district looks to see if others were also involved.

Fourteen incoming cheerleaders were invited to a party, where they were allegedly blindfolded and taken to a park over the weekend of May 4-6.

The Ogden School District said the girls were told to do physical exercises, such as jumping jacks, push-ups, and sit ups. While doing that, nine members of the senior cheerleader squad allegedly threw condiments and other food items at them. They also reportedly called them names.

The team advisers did not know this was planned. The school district found out when a parent and a teacher approached them about what happened.

The Ogden School District said they have a zero tolerance policy regarding hazing and they immediately started an investigation and suspended the girls directly involved. The investigation started on May 8.

Police confirm body found in river Sunday is Corbin Anderson

OGDEN – Ogden police confirmed on Tuesday that the body of a child found in the Weber River is Corbin Anderson.

Corbin was found by a man walking along the banks of the Weber River on Sunday, said Ogden Police Lt. Scott Conley.  Police said the preliminary cause of death is accidental drowning.   

Jack Price spotted the body of a child lodged under a log in the water, about 5 feet from the bank of the river and about a quarter mile downstream from the location where 4-year-old Corbin Anderson fell into the water more than two weeks ago.

“I’ve seen a lot of debris floating in the river and I really couldn’t tell and I walked down because I wasn’t sure what I was seeing.  I picked his hand up to make sure and it broke my heart,” said Jack Price, the man who found the body.

Price, a father himself, said he has been searching the Weber River for Corbin for the last few weeks and found the boy’s body near 21st Street.
