In loving memory: Remembering Ladre Frmdaapp — Goon Too Soon after North Meinneapolis shooting 

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — The North Minneapolis community is reeling in grief following the tragic and untimely death of Ladre Frmdaapp, who was fatally shot late Sunday night on the 2900 block of Russell Avenue North. The devastating incident, which unfolded shortly before 11 p.m., has left family, friends, and neighbors heartbroken as they mourn a young man whose life was taken far too soon.

According to the Minneapolis Police Department, officers responded to multiple reports of gunfire in the area. Upon arrival, they discovered Ladre suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. First responders immediately rendered aid, and he was transported to a local hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries. The Homicide Unit has since taken over the investigation, working tirelessly to determine the circumstances surrounding the shooting and identify those responsible.

The news of Ladre’s death has shaken the North Side community to its core. Known to many as a kind, loyal, and spirited young man, Ladre was deeply loved by those who knew him. Friends describe him as someone who could light up any room with his presence — a young man with a big heart, a strong sense of humor, and dreams for the future that were tragically cut short.

“He was always smiling, always showing love to everybody,” one close friend said through tears. “It’s hard to believe he’s gone. He didn’t deserve this — none of us did.”

In the hours following the shooting, dozens of community members gathered at the scene to mourn, light candles, and leave flowers in Ladre’s memory. The growing memorial stands as a symbol of the love and pain felt by a community that refuses to let his memory fade. Social media has also been flooded with heartfelt tributes, photos, and messages of sorrow — all echoing the same sentiment: Ladre was deeply cherished and will never be forgotten.

Local leaders have expressed their condolences and once again called for an end to the senseless gun violence that continues to claim young lives in Minneapolis. “Every time we lose another one of our sons, brothers, or friends, it tears a hole in the fabric of our community,” one activist said. “We need peace. We need change. We cannot continue to bury our youth.”

For Ladre’s family, the loss is immeasurable. They remember him as a loving son, a devoted friend, and a young man full of life, laughter, and compassion. His absence has left an emptiness that words cannot fill, and their only hope now is for justice and healing in the wake of unimaginable pain.

As the investigation continues, police are urging anyone with information about the shooting to come forward. Meanwhile, the North Minneapolis community is uniting in grief and remembrance, holding onto the memory of a young man whose presence touched so many lives.

Though his life was tragically short, Ladre Frmdaapp’s spirit will continue to live on — in the hearts of his family, in the stories shared by his friends, and in the community that will forever remember him for the love, laughter, and light he brought into their lives.
