Dajohn Cortez Ramon Yarborough of Minneapolis was charged in Hennepin County District Court with second-degree intentional murder and illegal weapons possession in connection with the death of Darrell L. Sims II, 27, of Brooklyn Park on April 2.
Sims was shot in the chest shortly before 10 p.m. in the 2400 block of Elliot Avenue, according to the charges. He died about nine hours later at HCMC.
Yarborough remains at large, and a warrant was issued for his arrest. Prison records show that he has skipped out at least six times while on supervised release for various offenses, most recently in January after a drug conviction.
Yarborough's criminal history in Minnesota includes three convictions for drug dealing and one for assault.
According to the criminal complaint:
Witnesses told police a man approached Sims outside the apartment building and started shooting. Apartment security video showed the shooter running from the scene.
Home video surveillance sent by a sheriff's deputy to a confidential informant led to Yarborough being identified as the gunman.
The complaint did not offer a motive for the shooting.
