On the evening of June 30, 2021, a vigil outside the Elks Lodge on North Plymouth Avenue in Minneapolis turned deadly when 36-year-old Drew Ginley, a Black man described as a beloved youth coach and mentor, was shot and killed in the parking lot. Surveillance footage shows Ginley falling, getting up with his hands raised, and walking away when a man approached from behind and fired multiple close-range shots. Ginley died at the scene of multiple gunshot wounds.

Witnesses identified the shooter as 40-year-old Deandre Dontae Turner, who was seen fleeing in a silver vehicle driven by another person. The shooting followed a brief altercation at the vigil; Ginley had been remembered at the event for his work with children and as a young father.

If anyone attended that vigil or has information about the confrontation that preceded the shooting, please share what was seen or heard.
