Protester killed at Utah ‘No Kings’ rally was a fashion designer from ‘Project Runway’
The 39-year-old man who was shot and killed while participating in a “No Kings” protest in Salt Lake City is remembered as a successful fashion designer who devoted his life to celebrating artists from the Pacific Islands. Arthur Folasa Ah Loo appeared in four episodes of the 2017 season of “Project Runway.” A national organization devoted to Pacific Islander artists that Ah Loo co-founded described him as “self taught” fashion designer from Samoa was deeply connected to his culture and community. Ah Loo leaves behind his wife and two young children, according to a GoFundMe for his family.
