STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE

Your Complainant is an officer with the Bloomington Police Department and has investigated the facts and circumstances of this offense and believes the following establishes probable cause: On March 25, 2014 at approximately 9:00 p.m., Bloomington Police responded to the Sam's Club, located at 200 American Boulevard, Bloomington, Hennepin County, pursuant to a report of an armed robbery. Upon arrival, officers learned that a short black male wearing a blue Sam's Club vest and ski mask had entered the store and used a small black handgun to rob the store of approximately $10,000. The suspect, later identified as MICHAEL DAVID HENDERSON, Defendant herein, ran out of the store towards the railroad tracks behind the store. Richfield Police also responded to the scene and observed the Defendant running on the railroad tracks and attempted to stop him, but he continued running, dropping several items along the way. With officers from both departments in pursuit, the Defendant jumped a fence and went down an embankment of approximately 20 feet onto Hwy. 494. The Defendant then attempted to take several vehicles at gun point, but was unsuccessful. Defendant then ran on to an off ramp on Nicollet Avenue South, where he was ultimately taken into custody. Officers spoke with the Assistant Store Manager of the Sam's Club, identified as Victim 1. Victim 1 said that the Defendant approached him and asked to be let into the cash room to drop of his radio. Victim 1 told Defendant he didn't need to go into the cash room, but only the "count down" room. Defendant punched a code that allowed him access to the "count down" room and Victim 1 followed him. At this point, Defendant turned toward Victim 1 and pointed a gun at him. Victim 1 stated that he thought the gun was fake and pushed it away. The Defendant then said he would shoot Victim 1 if he didn't take him into the cash room. Victim 1 then took Defendant into the cash room where Defendant forced Victim 1 to open the safe. Victim 1, fearing for his life, then opened the safe and put the money into a bag Defendant had with him. Defendant then fled and Victim 1 called 911. As Defendant left the store, he encountered an employee whose job it is to check customers' bags on their way out of the store. This employee, identified as Victim 2, asked Defendant to allow him to check his bag. Another employee, identified as Victim 3, was standing at the door. Victim 3 recognized the Defendant's voice from Defendant being a former employee of the store. The Defendant then pointed his gun at both Victims 2 and 3 and pulled the trigger. Both Victims heard the gun click, but it did not fire. The Defendant pulled the trigger again, but it did not fire. Defendant then ran out of the building. Bloomington Police also received a report from an individual whom the Defendant tried to rob of his vehicle. This individual, identified as Victim 4, told officers that he had been on an entrance ramp to westbound Hwy. 494 when he saw the Defendant standing on the ramp and he thought the Defendant needed help of some sort. As he approached the Defendant, the Defendant approached his vehicle and pointed a gun at his face. Victim 4 further stated that he could not move his vehicle, due to other traffic. Victim 4 stated that he knew he was going to be shot, so he ducked down close under the steering wheel and accelerated without really being able to see where he was going. Officers recovered the gun, which was a Beretta .22 semiautomatic handgun. It contained seven live rounds and a dimpled spent casing in the chamber. Defendant is in custody.
