Authorities Charge Two in Connection to Minneapolis Mass Shooting; Gunman Still at Large

Authorities have charged Tiffany Lynn Marie Martindale, 30, and Ryan Timothy Quinn, 33, in connection with a deadly shooting on August 26, 2025, which claimed the life of one man and left six others critically injured.

Deadly Attack

The shooting took place near 29th Street East and Clinton Avenue South, where gunfire erupted amid a crowd, leaving the neighborhood in shock. Police arriving at the scene discovered one fatality and six people with severe gunshot wounds. Dozens of .223-caliber shell casings were recovered, suggesting the use of an AR-style rifle. Surveillance footage showed a gray Honda Civic circling the area before the gunman stepped out from the passenger side and fired, fleeing on foot as the car sped away.

Investigation Leads to Martindale and Quinn

Authorities traced the vehicle to Ryan Quinn, who was observed driving while Martindale rode as a passenger. According to court documents, Quinn admitted to transporting the suspected shooter to the location and later dropping him off in north Minneapolis. Martindale’s phone records revealed multiple communications with the suspect and searches near the shooting site. Investigators also noted Quinn reattached his license plate following the incident, believed to be an attempt to obscure identification.

Legal Proceedings

Both Martindale and Quinn are charged with aiding an offender to avoid arrest, a felony carrying a maximum sentence of three years. Bail has been set as follows:

Martindale: $100,000 with conditions or $250,000 without conditions

Quinn: $150,000 with conditions or $250,000 without conditions

Conditions include surrendering weapons, avoiding contact with victims, and supervision by probation officers.

Manhunt Continues for Gunman

The primary suspect, “Bino,” has not been apprehended. Authorities believe he may have prior involvement in violent incidents, though details remain limited. Minneapolis police emphasized that locating him is the highest priority, urging anyone with information to step forward.

Community Reacts

Residents of Minneapolis expressed shock and concern over the violence, describing the area as normally quiet. Mayor Jacob Frey addressed the tragedy, saying:

“This is an unimaginable loss. We stand with the victims’ families and remain committed to ensuring justice is served.”

Next Steps

While charges against Martindale and Quinn represent progress in the investigation, authorities stress that the case will only reach full resolution once the suspected gunman is captured. Community members continue to call for accountability and safety in the neighborhood.
