Two police officers and a paramedic (although other sources indicate that it was a firefighter) lost their lives after being shot when they responded to an emergency call in Burnsville. According to the St. Paul Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, emergency crews were dispatched to a shooting at a home.
It was also learned that the shooter committed suicide, according to NBC. He has since been identified as Shannon Cortez Gooden.
