in relation to her death.

A Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) warrant for the arrest of Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) Officer Mohammed Noor was issued on Tuesday, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported.

Officer Noor, 32, turned himself in to police, and was booked into the Hennepin County jail at 11:16 a.m.

According to jail records, he faces charges of third-degree murder "perpetrating eminently dangerous act and evincing depraved mind," and second-degree manslaughter "culpable negligence creating unreasonable risk" in Hennepin County District Court, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported.

A presser has been scheduled for Tuesday afternoon, County Attorney Mike Freeman said.

Damond, 40, called 911 on the night of July 15, 2017, and reported that a possible sexual assault was taking place in the alley behind her residence, the Chicago Tribune reported.

According to the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, Officer Noor and his partner, Officer Matthew Harrity, responded to Damond’s call.

Officer Harrity said that the officers were startled by a loud sound, and that immediately afterwards, Damond approached the driver’s door of the patrol vehicle.

Officer Noor, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the patrol car, then shot Damond through the open driver’s window.

It's a cultural misunderstanding. He should be given more chances until he doesn't kill at the drop of a hat.

And the police need to make sure to take a looooong time to investigate. It increases our confidence in their ability to root out problems in their system and ranks.

#2  it has taken a long time to investigate this

the county now has basically a second by second timeline of what occured

there were problems getting this because the officer's cam wasn't on a lot of time and because Noor wouldn't talk and of course because Damond died
