A late-night altercation at Mr. Santana deli in Minneapolis on December 30, 2023, ended with the death of 40-year-old Kenneth Maurice Johnson of Wayne, Michigan. About 3:45 a.m. a physical fight among a group inside the Marcy-Holmes neighborhood convenience store moved outside; surveillance footage shows a chaotic scene in which a woman, identified as 27-year-old Misti Dawn Nelson of Minneapolis, drew a handgun and fired into the group. Johnson was struck in the abdomen, collapsed across the street, and died at a nearby hospital roughly 45 minutes later. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide by gunshot wound to the torso.

Nelson surrendered to police later that day and turned over a 9mm handgun. In her statement she said she had been hit in the face during the fight, feared for her sister who worked at the deli, and admitted to shooting Johnson twice, saying she aimed for the torso. A valid permit to carry was reported for Nelson. Does anyone have information about witnesses, surveillance, or other details from that night?
