Gunman identified in Burnsville officer shooting was prohibited from possessing guns

 

In 2020, Shannon Gooden petitioned to have his firearm rights restored but was denied by a judge.

BURNSVILLE, Minn. — Multiple law enforcement sources, as well as next-door neighbors, confirmed the identity of the man who killed two police officers and an EMT before killing himself as Shannon Cortez Gooden. 

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner confirmed the identity later Monday, posted to social media by the Minnesota BCA.


The 38-year-old was prohibited from possessing firearms as the result of a 2008 2nd-degree felony assault with a deadly weapon conviction, according to court documents.

Eleven years later, in 2019, Gooden petitioned the court to restore his firearm rights. Gooden wrote in an affidavit, "I would like to be able to protect not only myself but my family as well. I completed an anger management course as well as a parenting course."

Gooden noted that he had five children, ranging in age from 11 months to 11 years old when he signed the sworn statement in December 2019, as well as noting that he provided for his girlfriend's two kids who were 8 and 10 at that time.

"I have undergone tremendous personal and professional growth since my conviction," Gooden wrote. "I greatly regret and have learned from the poor decisions of my past. I would like to have a second chance to prove myself as a productive member of society."

First District Court Judge Dannia Edwards denied the request in October 2020, according to court records.

On at 2 a.m. on Feb. 18, 2024, Gooden opened fire on first responders from a second-floor window of the house he rented on 33rd Avenue South in Burnsville, according to KARE 11 News sources. Police were responding to a call of a domestic situation involving a man who barricaded himself with his family inside the house. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said seven children ages 2-15 were inside the home.

Burnsville police officers Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge, along with firefighter/paramedic Adam Finseth were killed. Sgt. Adam Medlicott was injured and taken to a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries, according to Burnsville officials.

Court records show Gooden had two order for protection petitions filed against him, one alleging domestic abuse and the other alleging domestic assault.


In 2017, the mother of at least one of Gooden's children alleged that Gooden head-butted her face -- causing a concussion and black eye -- and threw her down the stairs. The court dismissed the court action because the woman failed to appear in court.

In 2020, the mother of at least three of Gooden's children alleged that Gooden cut her clothes with a knife, causing her to fall down the stairs. She also said Gooden would pull her hair, throw her against the wall, and would let his family members assault her. The woman claimed she believed Gooden was going to kill her, but the court dismissed the court action because the allegations were not proved.

The Dakota County Attorney's Office noted the domestic incidents while arguing that Gooden should not have his firearm rights restored, In addition, the prosecutor noted other incidents in Gooden's criminal history:

  • 2004 conviction for disorderly conduct
  • 2005 conviction for disorderly conduct in which he hit the phone out of the hand of a woman calling police on him
  • The underlying 2008 conviction in which Gooden pulled out a 7-inch knife during a fight at a shopping center then threw rocks at a woman's car

"Petitioner's history of disobeying the law and posing a threat to public safety coupled with an insignificant passage of time demonstrates that, at this time, Petitioner has not demonstrated he can safely possess firearms," Assistant Dakota County Attorney Amelia Jadoo wrote.

For several years, Gooden was employed at LaMettry Collision in Lakeville, which provided the following statement:

We are shocked and saddened by the news of this horror and tragedy. Burnsville police officers Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge and firefighter/paramedic Adam Finseth risked everything and made the ultimate sacrifice. Our deepest sympathy and continuous prayers go out to these fallen first responders, their families, friends, loved ones, and colleagues.

 

ABC/WXYZ won't show mug shots of people arrested for shootings and other crimes but I will.

PICTURED: Detroit man Nicholas Jordan, 25, arrested for murder after Colorado Springs student and mom-of-two were found shot in the head inside dorm room

 

  • Nicholas Jordan, 25, from Detroit, Michigan, has been charged with two counts of murder in the first degree following his arrest on Monday morning 
  • Celie Rain Montgomery, 26, was identified along with Sam Knopp, 24, after police found them with gunshot wounds to the head around 6am on Friday 
  •  

Police have released a mugshot of the 25-year-old man arrested over the murders of a mother and a student who were gunned down in a Colorado college dorm last week. 

Nicholas Jordan, from Detroit, is accused of shooting Celie Rain Montgomery, 26, from Pueblo, Colorado, and Sam Knopp, 24, from Parker, Colorado, on Friday at Crestone House on the UCCS campus.

Colorado Springs Police Department said Jordan was detained 'without incident' at Cliff Point Circle East in a vehicle in the city at 8.37am on Monday.


'Investigative efforts continue to indicate this was an isolated incident between individuals who were known to one another and not a random attack against the school or other students at the university,' the department said. 

Montgomery was a single mother to two daughters aged five and seven, according to a Facebook post by a heartbroken relative responding to her death, while Knopp was a gifted music student. It's unclear what their relation was.

New York giving away 10,000 to border crossers.... who wouldn't want to go there?

REPORT: Illegal Border Crossers in New York City to Receive Debit Cards Worth up to $10,000 EACH

Illegal immigrants who land in New York City are now reportedly going to receive debit cards that are worth up to $10,000. This is madness.

Is there any wonder why so many of these folks want to go to the Big Apple? They already get free hotel rooms and free meals. What could they possibly need $10,000 a month for?

Have you questioned how so many of these folks are able to buy motorized scooters? Wonder no more.

The New York Post reports:


Inside Mayor Adams’ migrant debit card boondoggle — no-bid bank gets $50 million, border crossers up to $10,000 each

 

It takes money to make money, as the old saying goes, and, apparently, it also takes money — as much as $53 million — to give money away.

Earlier this month, The Post broke the story that Mayor Adams is giving out pre-paid cash cards to migrants.


Unusually for the mayor, Adams didn’t publicize this story himself, and his administration has for nearly a month failed to correct several public misperceptions about it.

One misperception is that the program allows the city to give out just $50 million to migrants.

No wonder the mayor has been reticent.


This debit-card program — if you read the actual contract — has the potential to become an open-ended, multi-billion-dollar Bermuda Triangle of disappearing, untraceable cash, used for any purpose.

It will give migrants up to $10,000 each in taxpayer money with no ID check, no restrictions and no fraud control.

Total insanity.

DEI training suspended after telling firefighters that White staff have caused 'racial harm': Report

The DEI training included quizzes on anti-racist thought

 

Gutfeld: DEI is destroying the very college campuses that created it

'Gutfeld!' panelists react to reports accusing Harvard chief diversity and inclusion officer Sherri Ann Charleston of 40 instances of plagiarism.

A diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) program targeted at firefighters and medics in King County, Washington, was suspended after backlash from employees, according to a report Tuesday. 

"Critics, including several King County firefighters, challenged the training’s political undertones and its potential infringement on personal beliefs, particularly regarding gender identity," radio host Jason Rantz revealed in a report. "The training’s failure could jeopardize participants’ EMT certifications, demanding acknowledgment of endless genders and an inherent racial bias among White staff."

The report detailed instructions in the DEI training for white firefighters and medics to check their racist tendencies.

"The training, titled ‘Stronger Together: An introduction to anti-racism and gender inclusion,’ aimed to instill empathy, awareness, and dignity in patient care, yet its execution ignited pushback. It suggested White staff members inherently harbored ‘racist or sexist views’ and had caused ‘racial harm at some point.’ They were even told that they "cannot be ‘not racist.'"

A video of the training, provided by the "Jason Rantz Show," described the practice of "anti-racism" as popularized by critical race theory (CRT) advocate Ibram X. Kendi. 

"Anti-racism describes ideas and policies that produce and sustain racism racial equity among racial groups," a speaker, identified as Kendi but voiced by Se'von, tells trainees. "Anti-racism is a powerful collection of policies that leads to racial equity, and is substantiated by anti-racist ideas." 

The speaker told listeners that a critical anti-racist practice was "holding yourself and your community accountable when you notice racism." 

"It is important for White people to understand the distinction between being publicly shamed for a racist act vs. feeling internalized shame while being held accountable for racism," one slide tells staff, according to Rantz.

The training, which included tests and quizzes, caused an uproar among employees. 

"Following feedback from numerous members expressing concerns about the test, and after consultations with several fire chiefs who echoed these concerns from their respective teams, we collectively decided to suspend this training through the SKCFTC (South King County Fire Training Consortium)," Renton Fire Chief Steve Heitman wrote in an email shared with the "Jason Rantz Show." 

Heitman said that while he "wholeheartedly" supports DEI training, he was still concerned that some staff members would feel forced to say something that does not accord with their own views.

"What troubles me are certain test questions that might compel members to compromise their personal beliefs or values in order to pass, a requisite for EMT recertification," Heitman said. "This potential conflict may place members in the difficult positions of choosing between their deeply held convictions and their professional roles as firefighters/EMTs."

A few days later, Heitman and other chiefs sent an email describing a meeting that they had about the DEI training, per the report. 

Heitman said that "there was unanimous support from the Chiefs for training aimed at diversity and inclusion and its importance to what we do," adding that it was not meant to be "divisive" but "may need some retooling to be more inclusive."

A King County firefighter who spoke with the "Jason Rantz Show" said the training was just one recent example of the county inflicting politicized training on local employees. 

"King County has been doing this ‘anti-racist’ crap long before Ibram X Kendi came around," the firefighter, speaking anonymously, said. 

"We’ve never had issues or problems providing care to people of different backgrounds in emergency scenarios, if you call 911 everyone gets the same care based on the given reason they called," he said.

The Renton Regional Fire Authority did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.


 

I'm sure that ALL the shootings are from LEGAL purchased HAND GUNS RIGHT?

 

 

 

...

NOT talking about LONG guns. I'm talking about the shooting with hand guns. They are ALL legally purchased, registered and carrying legal right?
