The Minneapolis police officer gunned down in an ambush-style attack was killed while trying to help the suspect, who initially pretended to be a victim in need of help during Thursday’s mass shooting, according to officials.
Officer Jamal Mitchell, 28, responded to a reported shooting inside an apartment in the city’s trendy Whittier neighborhood and ran out of his car to aid the shooting victims, Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Superintendent Drew Evans said in a press conference late Thursday.
But the man he had he was rushing to help wound up being the suspect, who fatally shot the “courageous hero” who was only trying to help.

Mitchell — who had been with the department for “less than two years” — was shot about a block and a half away from where the original call of the mass shooting was reported.
A second officer then exchanged gunfire with the suspect, who was shot dead at the scene.
Both officers were transported to Hennepin County Medical Center, where Mitchell died of his injuries, according to officials.
The second officer suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was released.
