United States Eighth Circuit

In a prosecution for being a felon in possession of a firearm, denial of a motion to suppress a post-arrest statement made without the warnings required by Miranda is affirmed where the arresting officers' in-custody questioning fell within the public safety exception to Miranda established in New York v. Quarles, 467 U.S. 649 (1984).
