Snapchat Argument Ends With 1 Dead At Plymouth House Party: Police

PLYMOUTH, MN — A months-long argument over Snapchat ended with one man shot dead at a crowded house party in Plymouth on Saturday, according to police.

Authorities say 19-year-old Raheim Cooper, of Brooklyn Park, shot and killed Abraham Archie-Boy Barbly, 20, of Brooklyn Center.

Cooper was arrested Tuesday and charged with two counts of murder. If convicted, he faces up to 40 years in prison.

Cooper is in custody at the Hennepin County Jail. His bail was set at $1,000,000.

On March 4 just before 11 p.m., officers were dispatched to a shooting call at the 5800 block of Oakview Lane in Plymouth.

A man was reportedly shot at a large party and was not breathing. A caller said a "switch automatic" handgun was used in the shooting, according to the criminal complaint.

People tried to exit the house when the police arrived. Officers found a man's body on the kitchen floor with gunshots in the rib, hip, and groin areas.

Outside the home, officers found a black backpack, authorities said. Inside was an iPhone with a cracked screen, several bags of "what appeared to be marijuana," and a loaded Glock 21C .45 caliber handgun, according to the criminal complaint.

The gun had a mounted laser sight and had been modified with a "switch" to make it fully automatic, authorities said.

Investigators said there had been an ongoing dispute between Cooper and Barbly for several months.

In a police interview, Cooper admitted that he punched Barbly in the face at the party and — after another man gave him a handgun — shot Barbly, the criminal complaint states.
