Nick Kapinos, who has 10 years of experience in law enforcement, fired his department's handgun and Luke Kittock, with nine years of experience, fired his department's rifle. Both are on critical incident leave.

The man who shot and killed Officer Jamal Mitchell was identified as Mustafa Ahmed Mohamed by the BCA on Saturday.

According to the investigation, officers went to an apartment building on Blaisdell Avenue following reports of a shooting. Mitchell was the first police officer to arrive on the scene and said on the radio that he saw two injured men in the street, later identified as Mohamed, and a bystander who had been shot.

Mitchell got out of his car and approached Mohamed, who was sitting next to a parked vehicle. Mitchell asked Mohamed if he was injured and needed help when, without warning, Mohamed pulled out a gun and shot Mitchell at point-blank range. Mitchell then fell to the ground and later died in hospital.

Other officers arrived on scene and saw Mohamed continuing to shoot Mitchell. As the police approached, Mohamed began shooting at them.

Kapinos and Kittock returned fire, hitting Mohamed. Officers attempted life-saving measures, but Mohamed died at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds.

Kittock was injured in an exchange of gunfire, but was treated and released from the hospital. A Minneapolis firefighter was also treated for his injuries and released from the hospital.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office on Friday identified a man who died from gunshot wounds inside the building as 32-year-old Osman Said Jimale.

The bystander who was shot remains in hospital in critical but stable condition, according to the BCA.

BCA personnel recovered a handgun with an extended magazine and several shell casings at the scene. BCA agents are reviewing all available body camera and patrol car video related to the incident.

The BCA is also investigating related shootings, including a homicide that occurred at the building at the request of the Minneapolis Police Department.

More information will be released as the investigation continues.

Once the investigation is complete, the BCA will present its findings to the Hennepin County Attorney's Office without making any recommendations.
