CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A man who fatally shot a security guard at a New Hampshire psychiatric hospital moments before being killed by a state police trooper was not allowed to have guns, ammunition, or any other dangerous weapons following an arrest in 2016, according to court records.

At that time, police seized an assault-style rifle and 9 mm handgun from John Madore, 33. Madore, who was arrested in Strafford on assault and reckless conduct charges, was later involuntarily admitted at New Hampshire Hospital in Concord, according to records. The charges were dismissed in 2017 following a competency evaluation that remains sealed.

The weapons ban against Madore was part of bail orders unsealed by a judge Wednesday following a request by the New Hampshire Bulletin.

On Nov. 17, Madore had a 9 mm pistol and ammunition when he shot and killed Bradley Haas, a state Department of Safety security officer who was working at the hospital’s front lobby entrance, the state attorney general’s office said. Madore was fatally shot by a state trooper shortly afterward.

Firearms are out of control when loonies like this guy can still obtain them & kill people with them.

We can't impose on lunatic freeberty because the state will use it as a gateway to imposing on the sane, law abiding citizen's freeberty.

Thanks for proving that the idiot left push for red flag laws does nothing beyond what the current laws already do.

On the contrary. Your article proves the system failed. Yet again.

You're like the person who has a hole in the roof and everything is ruined when it rains. You paint the house and plant flowers but don't fix the roof and continue to complain every time it rains.

Hmm… too crazy (insane?) to convict, yet fine to release from a mental institution with a ‘sealed’ weapons ban.

Yeah, those liberal gun restrictions work. All they have to do now is figure out how to keep the guns out of the hands of criminals and it's all solved.

There is something wrong with a system that can find someone too crazy to convict of a violent crime, but not crazy enough to lock up long term.
