Officials on Wednesday identified the man who was shot to death this week in south Minneapolis about a block off E. Lake Street.
Lojuron J. Emmanuel, 24, of Minneapolis was shot multiple times Monday near the Midtown Greenway in the 2900 block of S. Portland Avenue and died at the scene that afternoon, according to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office.
No arrests have been announced, and police have yet to offer a possible motive for the killing.
Officers responded just before 4 p.m. to the scene and found on the grass next to the sidewalk a man with several gunshot wounds, said Police Chief Brian O'Hara. Police found a handgun with an extended magazine nearby, O'Hara said.
Anyone with information about the shooting can call CrimeStoppers at 800-222-TIPS (8477).
