Before Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor shot Justine Ruszczyk through the open driver's side window of his squad, a woman had approached the back of the patrol car and "slapped" it, according to a court document filed Monday.
Authorities say Ruszczyk, who also used the surname Damond, called 911 to report a possible sexual assault in the alley behind her south Minneapolis home. She called again 10 minutes later to check on the status of the responding officer's arrival. Soon after, she was shot.
A search warrant was filed by Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigators to look at the area where the shooting happened and gather evidence as part of the investigation.
"Upon police arrival, a female 'slaps' the back of the patrol squad," according to the search warrant. "After that, it is unknown to BCA agents what exactly happened, but the female became deceased in the alley."
But the document doesn't explicitly say it was Ruszczyk who slapped the back of the police cruiser. It also doesn't say whether that was the loud noise that Noor's partner, Matthew Harrity, said he heard and was startled by before the shooting.
A BCA spokesperson declined to provide additional details, citing the ongoing investigation.
Noor has declined to speak with investigators. He remains on paid administrative leave.
The shooting has stirred controversy all around the country and internationally as news spread to Ruszczyk's home country of Australia.
Former Minneapolis Police Chief Janeé Harteau, before she resigned Friday, condemned Noor's actions and said "Justine didn't have to die." On Saturday, Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges appointed Assistant Police Chief Medaria Arradondo as acting chief.

Muzzies gonna Muzz but for me the most important part of the story was his police partner who stuck up for him.
Cops are way more dirty these days.
You guys are on the right track.
See my post 20. I’d bet $100 that Mo will get off scot free.
No cop, or force, is better than the worst behavior they do not try to stop.
One bad apple *DOES* spoil the whole bunch.
And the Twin Towers became collapsed.
Is that warning sign really posted over at Snelling and University?
They did it in the Philando Castille case and in most of theses other police shooting cases. Anything to criminalize the victim and make it look like they had it coming so they can call the shooting justified.

It is INCREDIBLY STUPID to thump a police car, especially at nighttime with officers inside in this age of ambushes on cops.. HOWEVER, I am not buying this narrative in the least bit. This is an attempt at fabricating an excuse for the shooting.
Yep, it’s beginning to look that way.
He’ll get a reprimand or some minor punishment like a month off without pay, then he’ll be back on the streets, ready to kill again..................
Note to the family: If you're thinking of suing, whatever the amount is, go for more. I hope you bankrupt that city.
Such is the PRICE of diversity! I am sure Mohammad thought he was justified in shooting the pretty Aussie girl, since she was in violation of Sharia Law.
Slap the car... fireworks scared the officers... throw a narrative against the wall if it sticks that is the one they all stick to.
Hey what about this novel idea? The Somalian doesn’t like Christian women so he shot her because he’s mooslime? Nah didn’t stick. NEXT! Remember he did nothing wrong because he is an immigrant and not a white person.
Or even just anxious, walking fast, and like you said, caught herself on the car. They didn’t have their cameras on so we will never know.
She became deceased because gun violence erupted.
It does that, you know. Kind of like a volcano.
Ah yes, the passive voice.
Jeez, what a SURPRISE! Muslim reporter begins a BLAME THE VICTIM campaign to protect the Islamic Jihadi cop.
Just how many creative writers does the Faux-Islamo mayor have working on this cover-up anyway?
Every day there is a new plot twist.
Before it’s over the mayor will be awarding the killer some kind of medal for public service.
No, she "became deceased".
Just like a Hispanic guy suddenly becomes white when he shoots a black in self defense. Or a Muslim dude suddenly becomes a closet gay when he kills dozens of gays. Or Sanders supporters suddenly become Trump supporters when they kill.
Ok ok... let’s accept the story as verbatim...
It still means he shot her WHILE HIS PARTNER WAS IN THE LINE OF FIRE!
