Emmanuel Deshawn Aranda grabbed a random 5 year old child and threw him off balcony at Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He has a history of violence and was banned from the mall. Somali perhaps? 🧐

He’s been charged with attempted murder, the boys condition is critical and he has severe injuries.

Real gem.

No one wants to find out where he’s from? Every other “criminal” the press digs in.

“in July 2015, he threw stuff from the upper railing of the MOA to the lower floor and was prohibited from going to the mall. Three months later, Aranda was caught throwing a glass over the MOA railing at a woman in a restaurant.” WTF

💔Prayer warriors. This is the child that was thrown off the balcony by lunatic man. His family has sent a request for a faith storm. #PrayersForLandon

Official statement from Bloomington Police Department.

Surprise! He lives in Rep. Omar’s district.

One of his arrests was for smashing computers at the library because of something he read on Facebook.

He admitted to stalking the librarian and knowing where she lived.. there was an active warrant out for his arrest when this latest incident at MOA occurred.

Does he have a child? One if his past charges is not using a car seat?

Bloomington PD are saying they anticipate more charges to be filed Monday against Emmanuel, will it be using a false identity because the name we’ve been given is a dead end. Other accounts are claiming a different name for him but I personally can’t verify🤷🏼‍♀️

UPDATE: Landen (confirmed it’s spelled with “e”) had his spleen removed, multiple fractures to his face, arm and leg has many surgeries ahead. Aranda approached Mother and son, asked if he was in the way, they said no and he picked up the child and threw him🤬

His Uncle says he has a serious mental problem and once threatened to slit the throat of a restaurant employee when they lived in Chicago.

#BREAKING charges have been changed to pre-mediated murder because Aranda admitted he went to the mall to kill someone, he intended for it to be an adult because they usually stood by railing! @BPD_MN should make this a hate crime. #PrayersForLanden

Previous arrest from when he destroyed five computers at the library.

Another previous arrest at Mall of America where he was throwing things off the balcony and destroyed a display at store. He resisted arrest then claimed he was being abused by police officers also continued to freak out in jail.

Yet another arrest at Mall of America where Aranda stalked a woman, demanding she giver him money or buy him food. Sat at table next to her, continued to harass then threw glasses told manager he was going to “break his f**king face”

Criminal complaint against Aranda who stated calmly numerous times he planned the day before to come and kill someone. Also a witness tried to stop him but was thrown against a wall.

Fingerprints match to criminal history unclear what SID stands for. SILS appears to be a tracking system for Hennepin County, not seeing alias unless that’s what’s redacted under SID? Relevant because many have claimed he has another name.

Confirmed SID is State I.D number so no alias.

According to arrest latest zip is 55408 Omar’s district, as was his previous address mentioned earlier in thread.
