Liibaan Baqarre, 40, was shot and killed during a robbery at a shop in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis on April 27, 2021. The incident happened around 7 p.m. at a store on the 400 block of Cedar Avenue. Baqarre was behind the counter when a man entered, pointed a gun at the owner and demanded money. As Baqarre tried to lock the door, the suspect fired multiple times and fled in a black car. Baqarre was later pronounced dead at Hennepin Healthcare.

Police identified and arrested a 30-year-old man the next morning in St. Paul after surveillance video helped trace the vehicle. Investigators say the suspect was found with a handgun and wearing the same clothes seen on video; cartridge casings from the scene were matched to that gun. The suspect initially denied being the shooter but made statements to police after being shown the footage.

Did anyone see the black car near Cedar Avenue that evening or have information about the robbery?
