Authorities on Tuesday identified a 27-year-old man who was shot and killed over the weekend in south Minneapolis.
Abdiaziz Salah Farah, of Brooklyn Park, died from multiple gunshot wounds in a Sunday morning shooting, according to the Hennepin County medical examiner's office.
The shooting occurred shortly before 2 a.m. near West Lake Street and Pillsbury Avenue S. near the Karmel Square mall, according to police. Farah's body was found on the street along Pillsbury.
Officers arrived to find Farah already dead. They interviewed people nearby and searched the area for clues, police said.
Police said they do not believe the killing was random, saying in a statement that "people had a confrontation at the location and one person started shooting." No arrests have been made.
