Arrest made in New Brighton shooting
NEW BRIGHTON, Minn. (AP) — Ramsey County prosecutors have charged a 21-year-old man with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of a 48-year-old woman outside a home in the Minneapolis suburb of New Brighton on Thursday.
The Police Department says officers in Rochester found the Corey Lee Gaustad’s vehicle and then at 5:15 a.m. Friday entered a local hotel and found Gaustad asleep.
He was arrested without incident. A handgun believed to have been used in the shooting was found, and a second handgun was in the suspect’s vehicle.
The victim was shot in the abdomen about 3:30 p.m. Thursday. She died at Unity Hospital about 7:40 p.m.
John Ellickson is deputy director for the New Brighton police. He says it appears Gaustad ambushed the woman and her 17-year-old daughter. He shot at her too, but missed.
He was apparently upset because he was told the daughter was not interested in dating him.
