Mohamed Yusuf Mohamed, 21, was shot inside an apartment building on the 700 block of Emerson Avenue North in Minneapolis on Thanksgiving evening, November 28, 2024, and later died of a gunshot wound to the head. Police were called a little after 6:00 p.m., found him gravely injured, and he was taken to Hennepin Healthcare where he was pronounced dead; the medical examiner listed the time of death as 6:39 p.m., his residence as St. Paul, and ruled the manner of death homicide.

Investigators reported early evidence suggesting the shooting occurred inside the apartment and that the assailant fled before officers arrived. The slaying happened on a holiday when nearby families were gathered, and city leaders said the violence cut through the quiet of the day. In the days after the shooting authorities had not announced any arrests and appealed for anyone who might have seen or heard something that night to come forward.

Did anyone in the Emerson Avenue North area that evening see or hear anything that could help investigators?
