Mitchell approached to help, but Mustafa pulled a gun and shot Mitchell several times in an “ambush,” police said.

Another officer arrived and exchanged gunfire with Mustafa, who was shot dead. The officer suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

When other officers searched the apartment complex two blocks away, they found the two people inside who had been shot, including Jimale, who was dead. The other person — Aden — was hospitalized in critical condition but later died.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is working with Minneapolis police investigators to determine the circumstances surrounding the shooting deaths.

“There’s nothing that can truly prepare you for the moment your entire world is taken from you. Losing my mom has left a pain in my heart that words will never be able to explain.”

What’s next:

Minnesota law requires that Steward serves at least two-thirds of her sentence, a bit under eight-and-a-half years, in prison.

The backstory:

According to the criminal complaint, through surveillance videos from the scene of the crash and witnesses, investigators learned that Steward, driving the Buick Enclave, had been driving at a high rate of speed northbound on Emerson Avenue North.

Before the fatal crash, Steward sped through the intersection of Emerson Avenue North and Broadway Avenue North, running a red light and nearly causing a crash, the charges said. 

Steward then continued to speed northbound down Emerson Avenue North, and ran another red light at 26th Avenue North, hitting the Ford Explorer, which was traveling eastbound, according to the complaint.

The Ford Explorer had been at the intersection of Emerson and 26th on a green light. 

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty shared the following statement:

“This was an egregious act that took Rose and Esther’s lives and injured a child waiting to go to school at a bus stop. Ms. Steward was driving at extremely dangerous speeds on city streets and narrowly avoided multiple collisions before the incident occurred. Third-degree murder charges are appropriate to hold her accountable and protect our community.”
