On the night of August 5, 2014, 24-year-old Jeffery Earl Willingham was shot while with friends in Dunning Park in Saint Paul. An officer near Hamline and Marshall avenues heard gunfire around 11 p.m. and found Willingham on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound to his stomach. He was taken to Regions Hospital and died the next morning after initially appearing likely to survive.

Police say the confrontation began when 26-year-old Ibrahim Mohammed Abdullahi of Saint Paul approached the group, began yelling and brandished a handgun. Willingham followed Abdullahi after a warning shot; two more shots were fired and Willingham was struck. Investigators linked Abdullahi to the scene through a shirt and ammunition recovered at his home and a blue 2003 Infiniti G35 found nearby containing a .38 caliber cartridge and his cellphone. Abdullahi, who had a prior second-degree assault conviction, was charged in connection with the shooting and later pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and illegal possession of a firearm, receiving concurrent five-year terms.

Did anyone in Saint Paul know Willingham or witness what happened that night?
