Abdi Omar Abukar was 27 when he was found with gunshot wounds in the driver’s seat of a vehicle on the 500 block of Knox Avenue North in Minneapolis on December 12, 2022. Police responded to a ShotSpotter activation about 10 p.m. and discovered Abukar unconscious; he was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center and died of complications from his injuries on December 15, 2022. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Preliminary investigators reported a man running from the area and a vehicle leaving around the time shots were fired, but no detailed suspect descriptions have been released and no arrests have been announced. The Minneapolis Police Department is asking anyone with information to contact CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Does anyone have information about that block of Knox Avenue North on December 12, 2022, or recall seeing a vehicle or person running that night?
