Monday's electronic monitoring and stay-away terms are new court conditions for a man who is out of jail. They are the accusation's next step, and the charges are still the accusation. Fox News Digital, citing jail records, reported a $100,000 bail or bond option without conditions and a release at 7:04 p.m. on Oct. 10. The White House Rapid Response 47 account criticized that no-conditions release. FOX 9's courtroom report is what the judge added on Monday afternoon.
The Hennepin County Attorney's Office said Friday that it charged Adam Abdihakeem Adam, 18, with two counts of second-degree assault with a deadly weapon and with second-degree riot, case 27-CR-26-26371, for a shooting at the Eden Prairie homecoming football game on Oct. 2, 2026. FOX 9 described the riot count as second-degree riot with a dangerous weapon. Fox News Digital described it as second-degree riot while armed with a dangerous weapon. The county attorney's office said one shot was fired, two people were struck, and both received medical care. County Attorney Mary Moriarty said, "This was an alarming and dangerous act that injured two people and frightened many more," and that "Mr. Adam will be held accountable." That is the prosecutor's statement. CBS Minnesota reported the two people who were hurt are 18 and 17, that neither was a student at Eden Prairie or Minnetonka, and that the injuries were not life-threatening. Their names are not used here.
FOX 9, citing the charges, reported surveillance video showed two cars entering a parking lot shortly before the shooting, then a fight of about 10 people near the vehicles. The driver of one car got out, fired at the two people, and fled, the station reported the court documents as saying. FOX 9 reported authorities identified that driver as Adam and said he was driving his brother's car. The charges say investigators tracked his phone with the car before, during, and after the shooting, and that he then abandoned the phone and changed his number, FOX 9 reported. Officers searched a home in St. Louis Park and found clothing that matched what the shooter wore on the video, the station reported. CBS Minnesota reported he is of St. Louis Park. FOX 9's Sunday story described him as of Minneapolis. The Sun Current reported the game was evacuated after shots on the north side of campus, that officers had already broken up a fight on the west side of Aerie Stadium, and that the parking-lot shooting was at 17185 Valley View Road. FOX 9 reported the game against Minnetonka was canceled and later rescheduled. CBS Minnesota reported the schools finished the game days later.
Fox News Digital reported police arrested Adam on Oct. 8 near Highway 55 and Penn Avenue in Minneapolis, without incident. The outlet reported the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office credited its Auto Theft Task Force and the West Metro Drug Task Force, with St. Louis Park and Hopkins officers, for boxing in the vehicle. Eden Prairie Police Chief Matt Sackett said after the arrest, "I'm incredibly proud of our officers and investigators who have worked nonstop alongside our law enforcement partners to identify those responsible and hold them accountable," Fox News Digital reported. On the release, Fox News Digital, citing jail records, reported a $100,000 bail or bond option without conditions and a release at 7:04 p.m. on Oct. 10. FOX 9 reported the jail roster showed a $100,000 bond or $10,000 cash, and a release just after 6:40 p.m. Saturday, which that story dated Oct. 9. Oct. 10, 2026, was a Saturday. The two accounts describe one weekend release and do not match on the clock or the calendar date.
FOX 9 reported Adam made his first Hennepin County court appearance Monday afternoon. The county attorney's office had set that hearing for 1:30 p.m. Reporter Emily Pofahl, in the courtroom, reported the judge added electronic monitoring and conditions: no passport, stay away from Eden Prairie High School, no weapons, no contact with the people who were shot, and no drugs or alcohol, FOX 9 reported. Sackett has said the homecoming investigation is still active and that more arrests or charges are possible, Fox News Digital reported. FOX 9 also reported that prosecutors on Friday charged four other men with one count each of third-degree riot involving unlawful force or violence: Abdirahman Ahmed Jama, 18, of Minneapolis; Musab Ibrahim Aden, 18, of St. Paul; Omar Adan Abdullahi, 19, of Burnsville; and Mahamed Ali Haji, 20, of Savage. The station reported it was unknown whether those four were in custody. Those counts are separate accusations.
CBS Minnesota reported police believe the homecoming shooting was gang-related. The Sun Current reported the same preliminary finding from Eden Prairie police and called the incident targeted. Fox News Digital reported that President Donald Trump's Rapid Response 47 account criticized the bond and wrote, "A Radical Left judge immediately granted him a no-condition bail." The outlet reported the account said police link the shooting to rival Somali gangs. That wording is the account's, as Fox News Digital relayed it. The Sun Current's account of what Eden Prairie police said about this shooting used "gang-related" and did not add that description. The Sun Current reported Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges, at an Oct. 6 briefing that also included Sackett, described recent south-metro gunfire as the work of young people fighting over "social media beef," not money or drugs. Those remarks, in that story, were about a Harriet Avenue shooting in Bloomington and about the pattern he described. FOX 9 reported that at a Friday meeting, Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Superintendent Drew Evans discussed what he called a "Somali youth gang and group violence" problem and said it is not a Somali community problem. Evans was describing that meeting. He was not quoting Adam's complaint. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
