Police said Monday that they are looking for whoever inflicted a fatal head injury on a 37-year-old man in a south Minneapolis apartment more than six months ago.
Deshaun Jermaine Boyd of Faribault, Minn., died on March 20 after he suffered “blunt head trauma ... during an altercation” with one or more people in an apartment in the 3300 block of Nicollet Avenue, according to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Medical Examiner’s Office spokeswoman Carolyn Marinan declined Monday to say when the determination was made that Boyd was a homicide victim.
Officer Trevor Folke, a Minneapolis police spokesperson, said no arrests have been made in connection with Boyd’s death.
There have been 53 homicides in Minneapolis this year, according to a Minnesota Star Tribune database. That compares with 63 at this time last year.
