Man as allegedly pulled gun on Somali teenagers in Eden Prairie McDonald is imprisoned
Police arrested a man Wednesday suspected of shooting a gun in a confrontation with young Somalis during a confrontation inside a McDonald's in Eden Prairie.
The 55-year-old man from Eden Prairie was imprisoned for suspicion of another crime, a crime in connection with the meeting Monday evening at the fast-food restaurant on Prairie Center Drive in the heart of the suburban widespread retail.
"The case will be referred to the Hennepin County Attorney's Office for a tax decision," says a police statement. Star Tribune does not usually identify suspects before being charged.
A Somali teen told the Star Tribune that she confronted a white man over what she took as ethnic weakness and that he responded by blowing a gun to her and other young people before they left.
Jihan Abdullahi, 1[ads1]7, said that she and a friend both tried to inevitably pay for An order with an app on the smartphone while the man stood behind them.
"As [we] goes away, the man says," You paid with EBT, that's why it did not work, "said Abdullahi.
EBT stands for electronic benefit transfer and refers to government-funded food assistance.
Abdullahi said she replied: "" Just because I'm black, do you think my friends and I live under EBT? "And he said," Yes. ""
A 45-second video viewed on Twitter more than 1.7 million times, begins at a time after more young people entered a confrontation with Mann. The video shows a teenage boy and the man pressed each other before the man stumbled backwards and out of the door.
At that time, the teens backed more and more shouting that the man held a gun. A gun can not be seen in the video. A police report says that the man apparently has drawn firearms from his life.
The police have not yet said whether it had a state-authorized permit that allowed him to carry firearms in public.
"During the survey, Several witnesses have been interviewed and video footage of the incident has been reviewed," said the police board. "Collaboration from McDonalds and many public tips have also assisted the Eden Prairie Police Department with this case."
