Minneapolis Warehouse District:

Man was killed last night after being pushed resulting in him falling onto the LRT track into the path of an oncoming train. Video by Rayal Robertson.

#MplsDowntown
There were reports of an altercation and MPD confirms they are investigating the death as a homicide. Suspect was reported as a BM, medium build, white t-shirt, black pants, red shoes with white bottoms, royal blue blanket around his shoulders. Occurred at 5th and 1st street last… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Minneapolis Mayor Frey recently…

There have been countless robberies and acts of violence committed on the light rail and platforms, yet the only time we heard from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on the issue was in a tweet after a trans person was attacked this past February: “We will not tolerate acts of violence… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Governor Walz certainly didn’t release a statement or tweet about the murder of a teenage boy that occurred in broad daylight at the Nicollet Mall station last August either. Image
I’m getting followers sending me some screenshots of some local MPLS accounts who find the fact that I shared this video disturbing, accusing me of sharing “snuff” - I post content that needs to be visually seen and not sugarcoated especially when it comes to crime. This is the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage

Trump supporters accuse Shaman of being a fed and wearing a wire -

Shaman strips to prove them wrong.
Something interesting though - notice the black guy behind them who joined in jumping and cheering?

I noticed his circle-A tattoo - the classic symbol prominently associated with Antifa and anarchists. He knew I noticed and then put his hoodie up. ImageImage
Also, directly behind me is well known NYC based left-wing agitator Walter Masterson who is known to dress up as a Trump supporter.

I’ve received several tips indicating he very well may have hired this “Shaman” since he’s known for creating spectacles/shock videos for MSM. Image

Saturday night in Minneapolis. Once again, I witnessed several fights and assaults outside the Gay 90s and Augie’s where just the night before three people were shot.

This has been the location of multiple fights, assaults and shootings the last several months downtown.

1/7
While recording one fight, I was caught in mace deployed from police - THEN shots were fired just a few blocks down on Hennepin outside the Saloon.

Other fights broke out that I just didn’t feel safe approaching given how volatile the energy was on the streets.

2/7
The city felt out of control - having just come out the previous night that left 10 people shot within 12 hours...

I almost hadn’t felt this much disorder since the riots; the atmosphere was just incredibly chaotic as other crime broke out in Uptown and Dinkytown.

3/7

The parents of Andrew Tekle Sundberg are telling media that the MPD didn't allow any communication with their son.

However, video from a livestream shows Mark Sundberg speaking on the PA system to his son.

"Tekle, this is your dad again. I need you to talk to negotiators."
Police repeatedly asked Tekle to pick up his phone. It's believed MPD never successfully made contact w/ Tekle who at times during the stand off was seen opening the window, looking out during announcements

And if police could not reach him I presume his parents couldn't either.
Tekle's parents cont. to tell media, including in this video tweeted out by Ben Crump, how restrictive Minneapolis police were in allowing them to interact with their son - during an active shooter situation where Tekle had fired off multiple rounds inside w/ residents evacuated

The GoFundMe for shooter Andrew Tekle Sundberg now has over $15K - out raising his victim, a single mother who hid with her two sons in her bedroom as he shot bullets through the walls of her apartment.

Two Minneapolis police snipers shot Sundberg after a multi-hour standoff.
There have been vigils and rallies for Tekle Sundberg since he was killed by police early Thursday morning. Tonight another rally and march was held to 'commemorate' his death.

Arabella Foss-Yarbrough was cooking in her kitchen when bullets started flying through her walls, destroying her apartment. Residents were evacuated and officers had to rescue the mother and her children during the active shooter situation.

“Somalis do not forget nor do they forgive”
Another video:

“Get her off stage”

Medina police showed up at my parents' home after I posted the photos of Hutchinson's wrecked squad - photos Hutch's lawyer & Co. Attorney Chad Larson tells press were "staged".

Police later told me the Hennepin Sheriff's Office asked them to look into me for posting the photos. ImageImage


Hutchinson was never arrested upon discharge from the hospital and booked with his mugshot & fingerprints taken.

Joanna Meduna of the Douglas County Attorney's office stated to me over a week ago that those records would be 'in the works'...
There is also the question of body cam and squad footage. With the investigation now closed, Hutchinson himself can authorize its release by signing a waiver.

Douglas County Attorney Chad Larson also has the authority in allowing release of the footage for public transparency.
