Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension's Drew Evans says Officer Jamal Mitchell was ambushed by gunfire as he was helping victims at the scene.This all started just after 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 30, when Minneapolis police were called to an apartment on Blaisdell Avenue South for a report of a shooting. While en route, an officer stopped to help what appeared to be a possible victim. That's when police Officer Jamal Mitchell was shot in what authorities describe as an ambush.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is leading what it is calling a complex investigation between two separate crime scenes. The BCA is expected to release more information on the shooting in the coming days. The gunman hasn't yet been identified publicly by authorities, but they say they believe they know who the suspect is. Jamal Mitchell had been with the Minneapolis Police Department since 2022, and was sworn in by O'Hara.
