BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. — A man who fatally shot a 19-year-old boy in the chest during a party in Brooklyn Park last June was found guilty Friday.
Daniel Walker, 32, was charged with second-degree murder and illegal possession of a firearm. Court documents say Walker thought there was a bounty on his head and preemptively shot the young man he thought would pick it up.
Witnesses said Walker shot the teen “without provocation” in a garage on the 9500 block of Thomas Avenue North. The victim died of a single gunshot wound to the chest.
