Before being found, Aaliyah Evans was last seen near the 2500 block of E. Lake Street with a woman in her 30s inside a Target store, police said.
Police found Aaliyah and the woman together about 8:15 a.m. in the 1300 block of W. University Avenue, said Trevor Folke, a spokesperson for Minneapolis police.
“Preliminary information indicates the child’s mother left the girl in the care of a friend with the mother’s permission,” Folke said in a statement. “When the mother returned, both her daughter and friend could not be found, and the mother had no way to contact the acquaintance.”
“There was no indication that the child was ever in danger,” Folke said, adding that the case has been turned over to Child Protection Services for further investigation.
Robert Martin Heiland of Minneapolis suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen on Sept. 17 and died nearly two weeks later, officials said.
