Patrick Robert Kimmel, 45, was shot to death by police on Friday, March 15 after barricading himself inside a Penbrooke Meadows home for more than a day.
Federal parole board documents dated December 2022 state Kimmel had a troubled youth and "long criminal history" which had been impacted by substance abuse issues.
As an adult, he was convicted of assault, assault with a weapon, possession of a restricted weapon and assault causing bodily harm.
The documents note there were times when Kimmel was homeless.
Kimmel was arrested in September 2021 on six outstanding warrants.
"Once advised you were under arrest, you were compliant with officers," reads the document.
