Minnesota officials have identified and located a key witness to the officer-involved shooting that killed an Australian bride-to-be in Minneapolis last weekend.

The Minnesota Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Apprehension announced in a press release Friday night that its agents interviewed the witness, who was seen riding a bike in the area immediately before the shooting and stopped at the scene to watch as two Minneapolis police officers provided medical assistance to Justine Ruszczyk.

I realize the cyclist may have been going home from work etc but in the middle of the night/early early AM, who bicycles in a neighborhood where a ‘veteran’ Police Officer sees fit to have his weapon in his lap when responding to a call to interview a ‘witness’ or complainant.

MAY be a tad different if the cops pulled onto a scene where some ‘action’ was taking place but these two were dispatched to the scene and yes I even thought the original call appeared sketchy enough to warrant extra caution on the part of the officers after the call back BUT the gun in lap seems a tad much.

ALSO, why was the original call seemingly ‘ignored’ - inasmuch - as it was not clear if they tried to reestablish contact with the caller prior her calling second time.

I would imagine in a CYA situation you at least would explain why 20 or so minutes elapsed with supposedly no action taken.

Re; Your cyclist statement . He stopped to witness cops administering “Life support”. But loud sound was apparently not part of his statement leastwise in this report.

Shed had plenty of time to pull on a pair of jeans and a top while she was making the first call, but she was Australian and maybe their alleys are cozier than American ones.

“Upon giving her report to the driving officer, the passenger officer (Noor) realized that she was about to put the finger on him as the rapist.

Noor decided to “solve” his problem in a very permanent manner.”

Like the bad guy boss in Pale Rider just before he gets drilled full of holes. “You. You!”

Hmmmn. I’ll bet that cop who was sitting in the left-hand cop car seat, when the black Muslim perp reached across and fired through a closed window at an unarmed white woman “might” be a witness as well.

If he can appear unbiased in court with the gunpowder and flash burns off of his face and neck.

Do you think its normal behavior for a woman reporting a possible rape to go stand outside in her night clothes in a dimly lit alley where she thinks the rape occurred?

Think again.

They better talk to the driver of the cop car in the left ear. Probably suffered permanent hearing loss in the right ear.

Being intimately familiar with that neighborhood and the kind of people that live there, it is indeed normal for them. If they had a sense of their urban vulnerability, they wouldn’t live there.

I catch your implication that the blond Australian woman was “asking for it” and was at least partially at fault because she went outside in her pajamas when the cop car pulled in.

I’m betting dollars to donuts that the local ‘RAT government has not given the two involved officers the opportunity to take a polygraph exam. And, if they were given that opportunity, both refused. I’m also betting that political correctness has prevented the local authorities from seeking a warrant (or, at least, asking permission) allowing them to look at their electronic communication and internet browsing records.

A coverup is in process, IMHO.

“The Department of Public Safety also said Tuesday that a bicyclist was seen in the area before the shooting and may have seen the incident. Police want to interview that person and any other witnesses. Mayor Betsy Hodges implored the bicyclist on Tuesday to come forward.”

http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/australian-shot-dead-minneapolis-officer-called-911-twice-n784576

I remember reading Harrity saying a bicyclist rode by in front of their car
Be interesting to see what he says he saw.

No, I'm suggesting her behavior is more consistent with someone who knows there's no rapist lurking in the alley.

Maybe she was bored at home alone, and wanting some excitement and/or masculine attention...so she calls police to report a possible rape in an alley behind her home then goes outside in her sleeping attire to wait for her protectors.

There's no excuse for shooting her though, regardless of her motivation.

On Saturday night the driver never mentioned a loud sound either...

he just said he was “stunned” when the killer cop suddenly fired his gun and murdered the woman he was speaking to...

The loud sound idea came from the killer cop and then the driver started saying he had heard a loud sound too...

but the only loud sound he heard was the explosion of the gun right next to his head and the whizzing of the bullet passed his ear...

(was the killer cop trying to murder his partner ??? he tried 3 times...he was nervous AKA shaky...)

after that the rhetoric quickly turned to it was fireworks but nobody came forward to say they were shooting off fireworks that night so that was dropped...

nor did anyone canvassed in the area hear a loud noise of any kind other than the shots...

now instead of a loud noise the killer cop is trying to claim Justine was on Ambien or some other sleep medication...Hello she was wide awake and not on drugs...

Somebody else proposed the theory that Noor was protecting a fellow Somali.

If there was a shooting event in the Special Olympics, this retarded Somali cop would win.
