Just over a day after a shooting claimed the lives of three first responders in Burnsville, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has confirmed the name of the man behind the deadly shooting.
Shannon Gooden, 38, died after opening fire on those first responders.
Burnsville police officers Matthew Ruge and Paul Elmstrand, along with paramedic Adam Finseth were killed Sunday morning while responding to a call for help. Burnsville Sgt. Adam Medlicott was also injured, but as of Monday afternoon, he is out of the hospital.
Police say an armed man barricaded himself in a Burnsville home with seven children.
Gooden's name was first heard through scanner reports. Dispatchers identified a man by the name of Shannon as being barricaded inside a home in Burnsville.
Sources close to the investigation then identified him as Gooden, including the mother of three of the children in the house at the time of the shooting.
