Man injured in mass shooting in Minneapolis dies
MINNEAPOLIS — A man who was among the people injured in a mass shooting in Minneapolis late last month has died, according to a medical examiner’s report.
Mohamed Bashir Aden, 36, was shot multiple times on the 2200 block of Blaisdell Avenue on May 30, according to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office. He died Friday at Hennepin Healthcare, more than a week after the shooting.
Aden is the fourth fatality connected to the violence on May 30, which began with a reported shooting.
Minneapolis police officer Jamal Mitchell was shot by a man he was trying to render medical aid to, according to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Mitchell was taken to a hospital, where he later died. The alleged shooter — later identified as Mustafa Ahmed Mohamed — was killed in a shootout with other officers.
Another person was found fatally shot in a nearby apartment building, according to a police report. Three others — another officer, a firefighter and a civilian — were injured, according to the BCA.
It’s unclear where Aden was located when he was shot, as well as who shot him.
Mitchell, who was engaged and had four children, is set to be memorialized at a public service in Maple Grove on Tuesday.
Mohamed was ineligible to carry a firearm and had an active warrant out for his arrest.
The BCA is investigating.

Police investigate triple shooting near busy northeast Minneapolis intersection
Three men were shot early Monday morning near a busy northeast Minneapolis intersection, and police say one of the victims is fighting for his life.
Minneapolis police say the shooting happened just before 12:30 a.m. near the area of East Hennepin Avenue and University Avenue Northeast.
Witnesses called 911 to report “multiple rounds of gunfire” and seeing people fleeing on foot in the area.
Police say officers arrived at the scene to find a man suffering from life-threatening gunshot wounds. About 10 minutes after the shooting, two others arrived at Hennepin Healthcare with wounds that aren’t considered life-threatening.
This was the third reported shooting this weekend in the city. A woman was shot in the head and hand Saturday night near Bossen Field Park in the southeast corner of the city.
About three hours later, two men were shot near the Wedge Community Co-op off Lyndale Avenue and West 22nd Street. One of the men later died at Hennepin Healthcare.
No arrests have been made in any of these cases, police say, and the respective investigations are ongoing.
