Abdullahi Omar Sheikh, 31, was shot and killed on August 10, 2016, while driving on 2nd Street Southwest near St. Mary’s Hospital in Rochester, Minnesota. The car left the roadway and stopped after striking a curb and a utility pole.

Police first responded to a reported traffic crash and later determined Sheikh had been fatally shot. Mohamed was arrested and charged in connection with the shooting; in December 2016 he pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter and, under a plea agreement, second-degree murder and another felony count were dismissed. On February 15, 2017, Olmsted County Judge Kathy Wallace sentenced Mohamed to 58 months in prison, with credit for 190 days already served.

If anyone has information about the events that night or knew Abdullahi Sheikh, please share what you know.
