Whoever fired that gun used deadly force, Tvedten said.
Tvedten said Priebe s gun was loaded, but it was not fired. Priebe s gun was moved from the scene, he said, but the first person to move it was someone who was not involved in the incident. It was picked up and handed to officers before being placed in the back of a squad car.
Priebe admitted to threatening to shoot Boose during the incident, but he did not shoot, Tvedten said.
Tvedten also emphasized that the trigger and guard on the handgun that was fired did not have much space to have multiple people s fingers in it.

ST. CLOUD – Eleven months after a St. Cloud police officer was shot in the hand during an altercation in a dark backyard, prosecutors and the defense argued in court Tuesday over the central question in the case. Who pulled the trigger? asked Ole Tvedten, chief of the criminal division at the Stearns County Attorney s Office, during his opening statement at the trial of 19-year-old Sumaree D. Boose.
Boose was charged last June with one felony count of first-degree assault against a peace officer. The encounter ignited rumors of Black men being hit by police gunfire and spurred two nights of violent unrest in the city despite rebuttals from officials.
