Two Men Arrested on Machine Gun Charges Following High School Graduation Shootings
[Breitbart] Twenty-year-old Hamza Abdirashiid Said and eighteen-year-old Amiir Mawlid Ali were arrested in Minnesota and face machine gun charges following shootings at two different high school graduations.KSTP reported that Said was arrested May 30, 2025, after allegedly “[shooting] two victims outside Wayzata High School’s graduation” and Ali was arrested June 6, 2025, after shots were fired at the Burnsville High School graduation. Said and Ali each allegedly had a Glock pistol with a “Glock switch” in their possession when questioned by police. Such a switch is used to convert a semiautomatic Glock handgun into a fully automatic firearm. The Unites States Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota pointed to “recorded jail calls” in which Ali allegedly “said that, upon his release, he would need a ‘button,’ a slang term for a switch or machinegun conversion device.” “High school graduation ceremonies are a rite of passage. A time for friends and family to come together to celebrate one of life’s major milestones. To bring machineguns and violence to such a ceremony is immoral and shameful,” Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson said. “On behalf of all Minnesotans, I want to express a sense of moral outrage at these crimes and assure the public that the perpetrators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
