Minnesota police say two officers and a paramedic have been killed in a shooting at a family home. The dead officers were named as Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge, both 27, and the paramedic was Adam Finseth, 40. Details of exactly what happened next are not yet clear, though Supt Evans confirmed that the police "did return fire". He is said by Supt Evans to have had "several guns and large amounts of ammunition", and shot at the first responders from different parts of the home. The incident came just days after another mass shooting in another Midwestern state, during which one person was killed and 21 injured in Missouri.
