A screengrab from a video shows security cam footage of Davis Moturi prior to allegedly being shot by his neighbor John Sawchak, while Moturi was doing yard work at his home.
John Sawchak Hennepin County Sheriff's OfficePolice were first dispatched to the home in October 2023 after Sawchak allegedly made threats involving “disparaging racial comments” at Moturi.
Then, a week before the shooting, Sawchak allegedly stood outside the Moturis’ home with a firearm and pointed the gun at Davis through the window, according to prosecutors.
On October 23, Sawchak allegedly shot Moturi in the neck from his second-floor window.
Yet his arrest has done little to quell renewed tensions between the Minneapolis officers and the community they have sworn to protect and serve.
