The Hennepin County medical examiner released the name of the third person killed at the scene Thursday evening: Mustafa Ahmed Mohamed, 35. He is believed to be the alleged shooter, although this has not been confirmed by authorities.
Mohamed’s cause of death was listed as multiple gunshot wounds.
Officer Jamal Mitchell died at the hospital as a result of the shooting.
Authorities say when Mitchell arrived at an apartment building in the 2200 block of Blaisdell Avenue, he immediately began trying to save an injured man in the street. Police said that man was the suspected shooter, who then opened fire on Mitchell.
