Deshaun Hill, Jr.
MINNEAPOLIS – A Hennepin County jury has convicted a homeless man originally from Cloquet of second-degree murder in the shooting death of Minneapolis North High School quarterback Deshaun Hill Jr. nearly a year ago.
Jurors reportedly took only a few minutes of deliberations to reach their verdict.
Cody Fohrenkam, 30, was scouting a north Minneapolis neighborhood for a thief who stole his cell phone at knifepoint earlier that morning when he randomly crossed paths with 15-year-old Hill, who was going to a bus stop.
Investigators said Fohrenkam shot Hill when the victim’s back was turned and he was walking away.
