MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Authorities are still investigating the shooting in a suburban Minneapolis neighborhood that killed two police officers and a firefighter. The officers responded Sunday as an armed man barricaded himself inside a home with his family, including seven children. The shooting in Burnsville resulted in the deaths of 27-year-old officers Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge and 40-year-old firefighter Adam Finseth. Authorities say Finseth was shot while giving aid to an injured officer. The suspect was found dead. He was identified as 38-year-old Shannon Gooden and authorities said Tuesday he shot himself in the head. None of the seven children were hurt.
