Court filings: Gunman demanded money from drug dealer, then fatally shot 3 in Coon Rapids home

The shooting deaths of a woman, her son and and her husband late last week in the family's Coon Rapids home have been tied to illicit drug dealing by one of the victims and a demand for money by the gunman, according to court documents filed Monday.

Alonzo P. Mingo, 37, of Fridley, was charged Monday afternoon with three counts of second-degree intentional murder in connection with the killings that occurred midday Friday at a house in the 200 block of NW. 94th Avenue, according to the Anoka County Sheriff's Office.

Mingo remains jailed in lieu of $5 million bail. He appeared in court Monday and has another hearing scheduled for Feb. 8. Court records do not yet list an attorney for him.
