Minneapolis: Muslim cop who shot unarmed woman refuses to be interviewed by investigators
With three complaints against him in two years, Mohamed Noor seems at very least to be dangerously reckless and/or incompetent. It is likely that Minneapolis officials were so anxious to have a Somali Muslim police officer they could showcase that they put Mohamed Noor on the force and kept him there when his obvious shortcomings would have had a non-Muslim officer fired or not hired in the first place.
“Investigators: Cop who shot unarmed woman refuses to be interviewed,” by Ray Downs, UPI, July 18, 2017:
July 18 (UPI) — The Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot a woman who called 911 for help has refused to be interviewed by authorities investigating the shooting, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety.
Officer Mohamed Noor shot 40-year-old Justine Ruszczyk, who also went by her fiancee’s last name of Damond, in the abdomen as she stood in the alley behind her home and told the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension that we will not consent to an interview about the incident.
The BCA is conducting the investigation into the shooting at the request of the MPD.
“Officer Noor has declined to be interviewed by BCA agents at this time. Officer Noor’s attorney did not provide clarification on when, if ever, an interview would be possible,” said the statement.
But Officer Matthew Harrity, the other officer who was in the squad car when Noor opened fire has been interviewed….
Both Noor and Harrity are on paid administrative leave during the investigation….
