MOUNDS VIEW, MN — The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating after police shot and killed a man Sunday night in Mounds View.

Just before 7 p.m., police were called to the 2500 block of County Road I on a report of shots fired.

While searching the scene, police received another report of an armed robbery in a nearby parking lot. A man told police that someone pointed a handgun at him in Aldi before the suspect ran into a nearby liquor store.

Police from Mounds View and New Brighton entered the store, where there was an "altercation" between officers and the suspect, according to authorities. The man was armed, investigators said.

Several offices shot the suspect, who was then transported to the Hennepin County Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
