Jacob Swartout, a sergeant with Savage Police, bumped his fist against a fallen officer's squad car Tuesday. Two officers and a firefighter-paramedic were killed Sunday responding to a domestic disturbance call.
Shannon Cortez Gooden lied about being unarmed before he fired more than 100 rounds at police and first responders without warning during a predawn standoff in a Burnsville neighborhood that left two officers and a paramedic dead, state investigators disclosed Thursday.
Those details and others came in the most specific release of information yet from the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) since Gooden, 38, killed the three responders early Sunday at his home in the 12600 block of S. 33rd Avenue.
Killed were Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge, both 27, and firefighter/paramedic Adam Finseth, 40. A public memorial service for the three is scheduled for 11 a.m. Wednesday at Grace Church in Eden Prairie. A third officer, 38-year-old Sgt. Adam Medlicott, was wounded and is now recovering at home.
