Police need help identifying suspect
Maplewood police are trying to identify a male suspect who pulled
out a gun at Bleecher's Bar on the evening of Friday, July 24, and
pointed it at patrons as he exited the establishment.
A little before 11 p.m., Maplewood police officers were called to
the bar at 2220 White Bear Ave. N., on the report of an armed
assault.
According to police, witnesses reported that the suspect was
fighting with another man inside the bar. The suspect pulled out a
small silver gun and pointed it at the man he was arguing with.
Those threatened with the gun backed away, but the suspect
continued pointing the gun at patrons as he backed his way out of
the bar.
Maplewood police request that anyone with information about the
identity or whereabouts of the suspect contact the Maplewood
Police Department at 651-249-2600 or call 9-1-1.
To place an anonymous tip, text the keyword "Maplewood,"
followed by the tip information to Tip411 (847411).
