The St. Paul man arrested in connection with a shooting at a Fourth of July fireworks gathering was released from custody Friday.
Jarrell Ray Kirk, 27, was arrested Thursday on suspicion of assault at a gathering on St. Paul’s West Side, according to officials. According to a search warrant, Kirk said he was involved in an altercation and that he fired his gun, which he has a permit to carry, after someone fired at him first. Kirk was released Friday afternoon from the Ramsey County Jail pending investigation.
No criminal charges were filed against him. |

The subject's claim that somebody shot at him and he returned fire constituted probable cause for a search warrant???
I'd like to see the probable cause affidavit before I recommend removal of the judge from the bench, but I'd bet money that I now know of better cause for removal than the judge knew when he signed the warrant. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
