Aaron Haywood Delaney, 20, was shot and killed on January 29, 2019, outside a Holiday gas station on the 1400 block of Minnehaha Avenue East in Saint Paul. The shooting occurred about 8:45 p.m.; Delaney was taken by private vehicle to Regions Hospital and pronounced dead there after attempts to save him.

Court documents describe an exchange of words between Delaney and an occupant of a nearby car while Delaney was removing a gas nozzle. The occupant, identified as Kyuntay Deshawn Prowell Jr., 18 at the time, exited the car; Delaney grabbed a windshield squeegee and retreated toward his vehicle as Prowell ran at him with a gun. Prowell then fired four times, fatally wounding Delaney. Prowell fled on foot but was later found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound near a home on the 1400 block of 6th Street East and taken into custody.

Anyone who knew Aaron, saw the incident, or has information that could shed light on what happened is asked to come forward.
