Fallen officer remembered after Minneapolis shooting. Minnesota GOP delegation says they’ll keep supporting Trump

At least three people, including a police officer, are dead after a shooting in Minneapolis’ Whittier neighborhood Thursday afternoon. Several others are injured. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey remembered the fallen officer, Jamal Mitchell, in an evening news conference.

The suspected shooter and a civilian also died, another man is gravely injured, a bystander is in critical condition, and an officer and a firefighter were shot but their injuries are not considered life threatening, officials said.

Donald Trump is the first former president to be convicted of a felony. A New York jury found him guilty of all 34 counts related to his hush money trial. Minnesota’s Republican Party and members of the state’s Republican delegation say they’ll continue to support him. 

And the Minnesota Timberwolves season came to an end after losing 124-103 to the Dallas Mavericks at Target Center Thursday night.
