State provides status update on suspected Anaconda shooter
Brown’s trial remains on hold as he undergoes mental health evaluations and restoration treatment at the Montana State Hospital, officials said.
- On Wednesday, Anaconda-Deer Lodge County District Court Judge Jeffrey Dahood granted a 60-day stay on proceedings for Michael Paul Brown, who appeared virtually from the Montana State Hospital for ongoing mental health treatment.
- Prosecutors charged Brown with four counts of deliberate homicide regarding the August 1, 2025, shooting at the Owl Bar in Anaconda, which triggered a weeklong manhunt before his capture.
- Most charging documents will become public this Friday following a Montana Supreme Court ruling, though the document detailing Brown's mental health evaluation remains sealed from public view.
- Dahood scheduled another status hearing 60 days from Wednesday to monitor Brown's restoration progress while the State's request to keep mental health evaluation documents temporarily sealed remains pending.
- Nine months after the tragedy, Owl Bar owner David Gwerder reflected on Anaconda's ongoing struggle, saying, "The community and the whole state really came together for the victims.
