| | Minneapolis shooting that killed MPD officer Mitchell claims fourth victim |
Officials say a man who suffered multiple gunshot wounds on May 30 in Minneapolis has died.
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office says Mohamed Bashir Aden died Friday morning at Hennepin County Medical Center after being shot inside an apartment building at 2221 Blaisdell Ave. on the city's south side. That’s the same place 32-year-old Osman Said Jimale was shot and killed.
Aden was 36 years old and lived in Columbia Heights.
The events of May 30 on the city’s south side have now claimed the lives of four people: Minneapolis police officer Jamal Mitchell, the alleged gunman Mustafa Ahmed Mohamed, Jimale and Aden. Three other people were also injured that night, including another police officer and a firefighter.
The memorial service for Mitchell is scheduled for Tuesday. | |

| | Meet Nanna, the 18-year-old blind and deaf dog on a mission to walk every bridge in the Twin Cities |
Abe Switters and Nanna recently moved to St. Paul and started a new adventure — walking every bridge in the Twin Cities.
It all began when Nanna and Switters crossed the bridge near Minnehaha Falls. Nanna reacted in a way Switters says he won’t forget.
“She just stopped dead in her tracks, and kind of peered out, without eyes, over the bridge. And it was something about whether it was the wind on her face or maybe being able to smell, you know, far down the river. She was just captivated. And I have never seen her so still and at peace,” he said. | |
