Last updated

Noonan and the state police gained national attention after two troopers were shot outside a State Police barracks in Pike County in 2014. On September 14, two days after the attack, Noonan asked for additional personnel and assets from state police agencies in New York and New Jersey. By mid-day on the 15th, Noonan had been in touch with numerous federal police agencies and had been talking with high ranking officials within the United States Marshals Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Noonan continued his media appearing focusing on the suspect, his motive, the state police's response and information on the families involved to national and international media.

Noonan was named to the board of directors of Pace-O-Matic, a gaming company, in 2022. [7]
