ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — A teenager has been sentenced to four years for his role in a St. Paul killing that led to the fatal shooting of Amir Locke by a police officer. Locke’s killing focused scrutiny on the use of no-knock warrants. Eighteen-year-old Feysal Jama Ali, of Minneapolis, was sentenced Wednesday to being an accomplice after the fact in the killing of Otis Elder of St. Paul, during a marijuana deal in 2022. Elder was shot by Ali’s cousin, Mekhi Camden Speed, who was sentenced in July to over 16 years. Locke was killed during a raid by a Minneapolis SWAT team that was looking for Speed.
