24 Y/O Khalil Azad perished after being chased down by police. He had a prior record but fled in fear and for good reason.
Despite severe injury and trauma the The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office listed the cause of death as accidental freshwater drowning after his body was discovered by a homeless man two days later in 3 feet of water.
That was July 2022. Family and community members are questioning the official law enforcement accounts of the death.
Robbinsdale police responded to the social media posts in a press release, claiming in its report that a driver fled a traffic stop on July 3, 2022, then was found dead in Crystal Lake two days later. Robbinsdale police claim a review of body-worn camera footage showed its officers had no contact with the driver who fled the scene. The department also challenged social media claims that named a specific police sergeant, saying he was not on duty at the time.
Black Lives Matter Minnesota is among the community groups calling for the mayor of Robbinsdale to release all body camera footage related to Khalil Azad's death.
A candlelight vigil was set for Thursday night at Crystal Lake, where Azad's body was found last summer.
