"Minnesota Shooter Prohibited from Owning Guns Kills First Responders"
Shannon Cortez Gooden, who killed three first responders in Burnsville, Minnesota, and then himself during a standoff, was prohibited from possessing firearms due to a 2008 second-degree assault conviction. Despite a petition to have his gun rights restored, citing rehabilitation, the request was denied by a judge in 2020. Gooden had multiple encounters with the law, including assaults and traffic violations, leading to objections from the District Attorney's Office.
