Minneapolis police investigate ‘homicide’ amid reports of ‘looter shot dead by pawn shop owner’
A suspected looter has reportedly been shot and killed in Minneapolis after a protest over police brutality escalated into a full-blown riot, with a law enforcement spokesman confirming one homicide amid the unrest.
Though few details have yet emerged about the murder – the first casualty linked to the riots – a number of unconfirmed reports, including from bystanders on the scene, suggest the man was shot while attempting to loot a pawn shop in the city on Wednesday night.
A video clip surfaced on social media purporting to show the man as emergency response workers attempted to revive him.
