Not far from the scene of a double homicide at an illegal "after hours club," an armed man named Jelani Abiola Jernigan (DOB 3/24/87) held off police for several hours. Click here for previous blog article. 

Any connection between Jernigan and the club shooting is purely speculative at this point. Maybe Jernigan just heard people shooting and thought, "Hey, that's fun, I would also like to shoot off my gun. I will just step out here to the front yard of 3807 Aldrich Ave. N."

Please don't take this for sarcasm, dear reader. It's actually not. I will warn you with the "sarcasm font" when it's sarcasm.

Anyway...

Even if there's no connection between Jernigan and the club shooting, Northsiders are still asking, "Who is this guy? What was his deal, anyway?"

Well...

He has quite a rap sheet. Here it is.

Previously, Jernigan was booked on a charge of terroristic threats and his mug shot appears on a popular "pay us to take down your mug shot or we'll keep it up" site, click here. There is a story on the St. Louis Park Patch website, click here, that goes into great detail about how Jernigan was charged in May of 2012 with pointing a loaded gun at a woman and threatening to kill her.
