According to the criminal complaint, on Sept. 2, at around 6:15 a.m., officers responded to a report of a woman in a silver Jeep who shot at the front door of the Hells Angels Clubhouse on Grant Avenue in Eveleth.

The caller told police they were sleeping on a couch and awakened by a disturbance at the front door.

A different Hells Angels member confronted a woman, later identified as Gunderson, at the front door, told her to leave, and shut the door.

The caller said they then heard loud banging noises and the member who answered the door ran out of the line of fire.

Authorities say they located fourteen 9mm casings scattered around the street and sidewalk in front of the clubhouse.

In addition, they found apparent bullet holes on the front door of the clubhouse and apparent bullet damage inside the front entryway.

Police say street camera footage shows a Jeep Commander parked in front of the Hells Angels clubhouse.

Gunderson walked to the front door, pointed a handgun at the door, and fired multiple rounds.

She then got back in the Jeep and drove away.

Officers spoke to the Jeep’s registered owner and learned they let her son use the vehicle.

The owner’s son lives on Townline Road with the owner’s granddaughter, Gunderson.

Authorities responded to the Townline Road address where Gunderson eventually exited the home and was arrested.

Gunderson’s haircut and clothes matched the woman shooting at the clubhouse in the camera footage.

Police say Gunderson made statements, including but not limited to: “I ***** hate the Hells Angels right now,” and “My gun is in my backpack.”

Officers then entered Gunderson’s room and found a backpack containing a 9mm handgun, multiple magazines, and rounds of ammunition.

Gunderson can’t possess a firearm based on a prior conviction from a 2016 incident for a crime of violence; third-degree controlled substance.

Gunderson is looking at up to 15 years behind bars for the incident.

Her next court appearance is set for Oct. 14.

At the time of publication, Gunderson was still being held at the St. Louis County Jail with a bail set at $200,000.
