On May 29, 2023, 18-year-old Tycorian Jaquan Estes was shot during a prearranged exchange of firearms in an alley in the 3300 block of North Grimes Avenue in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. The meeting involved Estes, 17-year-old Anthony Guerrero and a 14-year-old accomplice. An argument erupted as the teens attempted a gun swap; Estes reportedly put Guerrero in a headlock and Guerrero allegedly fired two shots, hitting Estes in the neck and stomach.

Two women who heard the gunfire applied pressure to Estes’s neck wound until emergency responders arrived. He was transported to North Memorial Health Hospital, suffered severe anoxic brain injury from prolonged CPR, massive blood loss and spinal fractures, and died on June 1, 2023. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide from multiple gunshot wounds.

Officers stopped a small silver SUV after witnessing it speed and run a red light; Guerrero and the 14-year-old were arrested. A 9-millimeter handgun, an extended magazine, ammunition and a spent 9mm shell casing in Guerrero’s sweatshirt pocket were recovered. Guerrero was charged with second-degree unintentional murder and illegal weapons possession and was petitioned to be tried as an adult; the younger accomplice was charged in juvenile court.

If anyone witnessed the exchange or the vehicle leaving the scene, please share what was seen.
