A man is facing one count of 2nd degree murder and eleven counts of attempted murder while another is facing 12 counts of attempted murder. With one dead and fourteen injured including 2 alleged shooters in a bar on 7th in St. Paul, people in this city are trying to figure out why this is happening here and what might come next.
St. Paul Criminal Defense Attorney Jack Rice appears on AM 950 in Minneapolis to discuss this latest shooting, how the police investigate it and how this case may very well be prosecuted.
Self defense may really come into play in this case. If somebody is shooting at you, simply defending yourself comes down to intent.
Bail has been set at $10 million each so it is expected that neither of these men are going anywhere soon. According to reports, one of the men shot somebody and then turned on another and shot at him before he fired back. Of course, this raises to question of self defense and defense of others. While it may seem simple, this may get more complicated.
