COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - The man who killed four people at a church and missionary training center died of a self-inflicted shotgun wound, police said Tuesday.
Matthew Murray, 24, was struck multiple times by a security officer at New Life Church Sunday but died after firing a single shot at himself, the El Paso County Coroner's Office concluded after an autopsy.

What a garbage headline. It’s meant to minimize her role or make her look like a liar.
Sorry Mods, can you fix posted link? Meant to paste
Breitbart link from Drudge.
I wondered how the MSM would get out of the mess they’d caused by making it looked like armed citizens matter.
Personally I’m glad, it means nobody can call for her (the security guard) to be prosecuted and she can’t be sued by his family.
It’s a win win for her.
She helped him by giving him an idea.......
Whether her bullet did the damage, or not, doesn’t matter. If it weren’t for her there would be many more people dead.It is a win-win for her and no PC lawsuit.
Yep, a quick way to end the pain of her round after round going into his body...
Jeanne Assam stopped him flat. Maybe he killed himself...doesn’t matter. She continued to fire until she knocked the perp off his feet...then she again warned him...he still had control of his gun...so she proceeded to fire...former law enforcement officer...intense training... The paid security guards both men had their weapons draw and stood around like ‘what’d I do now’...duh... did they freeze...sounds like it...should they be fired...I would think so...hire her...make her head of security...she deserves to be highly honored...
She is a former LEO? I hadn’t heard or seen that anywhere. I was guessing either that or former military.
This song just came to mind.
Gun Sale At The Church
(Written by Buddy Blue)
Well let’s pack up the kids
and take a break, get away
leave the hustle and bustle
of living from day to day
and I know that the crime
in the city is getting worse
So I’m going on down to
the gun sale at the church
Well my lady’s all set
to have us a real good time
Baby Johnny got fevers
but he don’t seem to mind
so the familys all ready to pray
at the holy bird
That’s set up in the middle of
the gun sale at the church
Well we’ll ask the lord to
forgive us for all our sins
and we’ll look at the latest in
gold plated firing pins
Well my two main men are
Jesus and old John Birch
So I’m going on down to
the gun sale at the church
Well we’ll ask the lord to
forgive us for all our sins
and we’ll look at the latest in
gold plated firing pin
Well let’s pack up the kids
and take a break, get away
leave the hustle and bustle
of living from day to day
and I know that the crime
in the city is getting worse
So I’m going on down to
the gun sale at the church
So I’m going on down to
the gun sale at the church
So I’m going on down to
the gun sale at the church
I thought she was the only armed security officer at the church when all this went down?
These maniacs want to be in control. He would not have shot himself if he believed he was still in control.
Folks, what we see here is the media taking a baseball bat to a hero because of two things: she is a dedicated Christian and she used a gun.
They even threw in a statement that she was fired from her police job for lying in an investigation about cussing out a bus driver.
Really off the wall and totally irrelevant considering that the guy she shot had over 1,000 rounds of ammo on him and intended on using every one.
But then it’s the media that creates and feeds hatred of Christians isn’t it...
I agree. And she doesn’t have to live with the knowledge that she took a life, which, believe it or not, creates a hardship for law enforcement officers and soldiers alike, regardless of the circumstances under which the killing occurs.
Maybe it was a kindness right from God.
Yes, former police officer.
Any witnesses see him do this? One said he fired 3 times AT her.
Yes, in MN...unfortunately she was fired...an internal investigation said she lied about using foul language...they had some type of tape to prove that. She appealed and lost. Today, it’s their loss...she’s America’s hero.
