Homicide suspect commits suicide on Nicollet Mall as police close in

August 26, 2020 By Bill Werner

Police say a suspect in an earlier killing at a downtown Minneapolis parking ramp shot himself in the head on the Nicollet Mall Wednesday evening as police closed in. It happened between 8th and 9th streets, near Target’s flagship store and corporate headquarters. M-P-D spokesman John Elder said, “There is no question that this was a suicide and we will be releasing the video to answer any question of that.” It came about four hours after police found a man dead at Ramp A, next to Target Field. Elder says investigators do *not* believe it was a random attack.
