St. Joseph County Prosecutor decides not to file charges after fatal shooting in May
The St. Joseph County Prosecutor's office ruled a shooting death at a South Bend gas station in May a justified shooting. The prosecutor's office determined not to file criminal charges after a man, identified as Jerry Barnette, 56, of South Bend, died from injuries in a shooting, police said. Through an investigation by the department's Violent Crimes Unit, South Bend Police said two people involved in a May 21 shooting were found. Barnette was found with gunshot injuries inside Logan Quick Mart at the 300 block of South Logan Street, and a second person shot, a juvenile, was found in Mishawaka. Barnette was pronounced dead at the scene, police said June 17. The juvenile found in a Mishawaka residence was treated for non-life-threatening injuries, the department said. An investigation connected the juvenile to the scene on Logan Street, police said. All case facts and evidence from the shooting, including surveillance video, were reviewed and found that Barnette and the juvenile were talking outside of the business when the juvenile walked away and into the quick mart, police said in a press release. Barnette followed the juvenile inside and "re-engaged with the juvenile, armed with a firearm," police said. Barnette and the juvenile shot at each other before police were contacted, the press release said. After reviewing facts and evidence regarding the incident, the prosecutor's office determined that self-defense could not be disproven and therefore decided not to file charges against the juvenile, police said.

Teenager pleads guilty after investigators uncover cache of illegally possessed weapons
Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old An 18-year-old man has pleaded guilty to owning a machine gun after an investigation at a St. Paul home in March recovered a cache of illegally possessed weapons, including a ghost gun. The teenager was 17 years old when Ramsey County authorities found the "ghost guns, automatic machine guns, multiple extended magazines and enough ammunitions for multiple drive-by shootings." According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, a "ghost gun" refers to a firearm that has been assembled or completed by someone other than a licensed manufacturer. They do not have a serial number, which often makes them difficult to track. The teenager was charged with 12 felony counts all relating to the cache of weapons investigators found during their search. He pleaded guilty Friday in juvenile court to one count of owning a machine gun. He was placed on electronic home monitoring and house arrest. His sentencing is scheduled for Wednesday. Ramsey County Sheriff's Office Court records show that he was previously charged in a 2024 incident where he was alleged to have pulled a gun on someone at a rec center in St. Paul, though the charge was dismissed from the record after he served 180 days probation and a term of community service. Note: The above video first aired on April 2, 2025.

Carnival Argument Shooting Kills 3 in an Unusually Violent Weekend for Salt Lake City Area
A 16-year-old boy shot five people in a confrontation between two groups at a carnival in a Salt Lake City suburb Sunday, killing three of them, including an 8-month-old infant, police said. The shooting in West Valley City, a day after an apparently unrelated shooting killed a man at a No Kings protest, made for an unusually violent weekend in the Salt Lake City area. Police working at WestFest at Centennial Park about 6 miles (10 kilometers) southwest of downtown Salt Lake City saw the two groups Sunday night. As they approached to break up the altercation, a 16-year-old male from one of the groups pulled out a gun and fired, the department posted on X. One officer fired back but did not hit anyone. The shooter struck and killed an 18-year-old man in one of the groups, police said. Besides the infant, a 41-year-old woman bystander also was killed. Two other teens–a 17-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy–were both hit in the arm, police said. It was not clear if they were connected to the groups involved. A pregnant woman was hurt while trying to get over a fence to flee, police said. The 16-year-old was quickly taken into custody, police said. His name would not be released because he was a juvenile, West Valley City spokesperson Roxeanne Vainuku said at a news conference late Sunday. Police were interviewing witnesses to find out more about what happened, Vainuku said. 'We don't know yet if this was gang related. We do know that we have two groups of people who were having some sort of a verbal altercation,' Vainuku said. An estimated 10,000 people were at the carnival, a celebration of the establishment of West Valley City and of its cultural diversity. The apparently unrelated shooting at the No Kings protest the day before happened when a man believed to be part of a peacekeeping team for the rally shot at a man brandishing a rifle at demonstrators, striking both the rifleman and a bystander. The rifleman had relatively minor injuries, but the bystander died at a hospital.
