Hagos Tsegay Melake, 26, was found dead in a Shoreview, Minnesota parking lot on the morning of August 29, 2013. An autopsy determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound. The night before he had taken a bus to downtown St. Paul and was last seen leaving Hunan Garden Restaurant on Cedar Street around 1:30 a.m., reportedly with two unidentified individuals.

Around 4:30 a.m. on August 29 his credit card was used at a U.S. Bank ATM on West Broadway in Minneapolis; surveillance captured an unidentified woman using the card, later named by police as a person of interest. Two weeks before the killing Melake had been violently robbed and had taken one assailant’s cell phone, then tried to contact the robbers to recover his money and even scheduled a meeting with a St. Paul police officer that he did not attend. Two men were charged in that earlier robbery, but no definitive link to the homicide has been established.

Several persons of interest have been identified but no arrests have been announced and the case remains open. Does anyone have information about Melake’s movements that night or recognize the people seen with him?
