As authorities worked to secure the scene and render medical aid, what officers called an “uncooperative and hostile crowd” formed, necessitating a call for additional officers, according to a police news release.
Paramedics and Fire Department officials made it to the victim after police dispersed the crowd, but he died at the scene.
Police have not yet named the victim or made any arrests, a Minneapolis Police Department spokesman said.
