A man was fatally shot Sunday morning in Burnsville, according to Burnsville Police.

Officers reported at 1:28 a.m. in an X post that the shooting occurred at a residence in the Chancellor Manor complex off of Irving Ave South. The victim was identified by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office as 22-year-old Ahmed Abdinaasir Noor.

Noor was taken to the hospital with apparent gunshot wounds, according to the X post. The medical examiner’s report states the case is a homicide and that a gunshot wound to the chest resulted in the fatality.

The investigation is ongoing. Officials ask that people avoid the area until additional information is provided.

The Eagan Police Department is leading the investigation because Burnsville officers and detectives are in Washington, D.C., for memorial events, according to a Burnsville police spokesman. Surrounding police departments are covering for Burnsville officers while they are gone.

Hopi artifacts to be repatriated this fall

During an annual update to the University of Minnesota Board of Regents, Karen Diver, senior adviser to the president on Native American affairs, said the repatriation of the Mimbres collection could begin in October.

“We anticipate working with the Hopi as the lead tribe to repatriate their ancestors and funerary objects in the fall,” she said.

Anthropologists at the university excavated more than 150 ancestral remains and thousands of Mimbres cultural items from the ancestral gravesites of Indigenous people in the southwest during digs that took place between 1928 and 1931.

The Hopi Tribe is located in northeastern Arizona.

4 killed, 200 displaced in apartment fire

A Milwaukee apartment building fire that began in a common area and spread to multiple floors Sunday killed four people and critically injured four others.

Several more were treated for lesser injuries in the fire that began sometime before 8 a.m. on Mother’s Day.

The blaze rendered the 85-unit building uninhabitable, displacing an estimated 200 people, Milwaukee Fire Chief Aaron Lipski said at a news conference.

Calls came in that people were trapped and jumping from the four-story building’s second floor to escape. The first firefighters to arrive were “far, far outmatched” by intense flames, Lipski said.

In all, about 30 people were rescued. The cause was unclear but Lipski expressed confidence it would be figured out in time.
