It was said that Khalil Azad’s death, which was unexplained and happened about a year ago, was caused by unintentional drowning. However, according to his family and the Minnesota Black Lives Matter movement, the 24-year-old must have died as a result of Robbinsdale Police violence.
Police allege that on July 3, 2022, they attempted to conduct an early-morning DWI traffic stop. The motorist, nevertheless, would not pull over, and a chase started. When the driver finally lost control, the vehicle came to a rest in the 3900 block of Lakeland Avenue North. According to reports, the car’s driver escaped on foot and was never apprehended. Khalil Azad, who eluded the police chase, was, however, recognized two days later from a corpse found on the Crystal River.
