'You missed': New details emerge as teens charged in Burnsville graduation night shooting
'You missed': New details emerge as teens charged in Burnsville graduation night shooting originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Two 18-year-olds from Bloomington and Shakopee are facing drive-by shooting charges in connection to an incident following the Burnsville High School graduation ceremony on Friday, June 6. Abdulahi Jama Ali, of Shakopee, and Abdikani Mukhtar Abdiwahab, of Bloomington, were charged Monday in Dakota County District Court, Ali is charged with two counts of drive-by shooting and one count of assault with a dangerous weapon. Abdiwahab is facing two drive-by shooting charges and other counts for aiding an offender. According to the criminal complaint, gunshots rang out west of Burnsville High School around 8:30 p.m., which was approximately 30 minutes after the graduation ceremony concluded. The shots were fired after police on scene had already broken up "several physical altercations" and attempted to disperse two groups who were "flashing gang signs towards each other." Ali and Abdiwahab were arrested after bystanders pointed police in the direction of the black Toyota Camry they were in. Abdiwahab was driving and Ali was in the front passenger seat, according to the complaint. While arresting the duo, officers heard a bystander shout, "Ksoe, you missed. You dumb ass. You missed." The complaint claims that Ali's nickname is "Ksoe." Further investigation revealed, allegedly, that the bystander who mocked "Ksoe" for missing was seen earlier — by witnesses in a vehicle behind the Toyota Camry — approach the Camry and talk with the duo before he "tried to punch the Camry" before the witness "saw the barrel of a gun come out of the front passenger window and open fire." Police found a handgun with an extended magazine under the front passenger seat. They also found one bullet casing on the driver's side floorboard and two more casings on the street by the vehicle. One bullet fragment was found lodged into the headlight of a vehicle parked nearby. Abdiwahab allegedly waived his Miranda rights and claimed he didn't shoot a gun and didn't know anything about a gun being shot. He also said he didn't know how a gun wound up in his car. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension collected DNA samples from the gun, Ali and Abdiwahab for analysis. No one was physically injured in the shooting.

SF takes to the streets to protest ICE raids, demand Huerta's release
Amid escalating anti-immigration efforts, labor unions are warning San Franciscans that no one is safe from the Trump administration. Driving the news: David Huerta, president of the Service Employees International Union-United Service Workers West, was arrested in Los Angeles Friday while serving as a community observer at a worksite immigration raid. He has been charged with conspiracy to impede an officer for allegedly blocking a law enforcement vehicle. The latest: Over 100 people packed the street in front of the Hiram W. Johnson State Building at noon Monday, calling for Huerta's release and an end to raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The rally was among over 30 spearheaded by local unions across the country. What they're saying:"It's so painful to know that this can happen to any one of us," SEIU Local 87 president Olga Miranda, who organized the protest, told Axios. "All he was doing was standing there to make sure enforcement wasn't brutal." Between the lines: Immigrants have played critical roles in California unions over the last few decades, especially in the Bay Area, which has seen success organizing janitors, health care workers and fast food employees. "Everybody should be worried ... . They're offended by our mere existence," Miranda said, referencing her identity as a brown Chicana woman. She noted that many people are increasingly scared to show up to work because of potential raids. Yes, but: Miranda emphasized that while exercising First Amendment rights is important, she does not condone "anything being set on fire" in light of Sunday's protests, where multiple Waymos were set on fire.

Man accused of shooting cousin at Les Davis Pier in Tacoma, charges say
A 33-year-old man is accused of shooting his cousin after a fistfight at Tacoma's Les Davis Pier on Sunday. Officers were dispatched at about 9:30 p.m. to the 3400 block of Ruston Way after multiple people called 911 to report the shooting. The alleged shooter was on scene, according to charging documents. A crowd had formed around the injured man, who was lying on the ground, prosecutors wrote. The man was initially in critical condition after he was taken to Tacoma General Hospital, but police were later informed his status was changed to non-life threatening. The alleged shooter was standing a few feet away, and he complied with the officer's demands to drop to his knees, prosecutors wrote. He had not been shot and, the handgun was allegedly in his fanny pack. After officers arrested the man and read his Miranda rights, he allegedly said, 'I feared for my life because he did come at me attacking me,' documents show. A witness told police that she was sitting in her vehicle when she saw two men 'striking and grappling' with one another. The victim began walking away and, when he faced his cousin, the alleged shooter took out a handgun and fired at his chest, documents show. The gunman allegedly shot the victim again at his right hip. The witness said she went to the victim and started providing medical aid. She said the man allegedly repeated that it was 'self-defense' and approached to help. The witness responded saying it was not self-defense, and said she yelled at him to get back, documents show. The parents of the 33-year-old alleged shooter told police that the men were cousins and roommates, prosecutors wrote. Officers later learned from the victim's girlfriend that the men had been arguing all morning because the gunman wanted to kick the victim out of the apartment, prosecutors wrote. The girlfriend and victim went to the park to relax when the alleged shooter found them and started arguing with his cousin. Documents show the alleged shooter grabbed the victim's clothes from the vehicle and threw them on the ground. The girlfriend was in the driver's seat of her car when she heard two shots. She allegedly saw the defendant with a gun and the victim on the ground, bleeding. Other witnesses also told police they saw the man with a gun after they heard gunshots, documents show. Prosecutors in Pierce County charged the man with first-degree assault, domestic violence. His arraignment was scheduled for Monday afternoon where bail will be set. The man does not have any previous criminal convictions, court records show.
