According to video footage and witness accounts, Davis-Miles later punched the elderly man outside the bus, causing him to fall backward and strike his head against the pavement, police said.
After the man fell, Davis-Miles shook hands with his friends “in a congratulatory manner,” then several members of the group rummaged through the victim’s pockets as he lay unconscious on the ground, the Star-Tribune of Minneapolis reported.
Police told FOX 9 the man suffered a serious brain injury and died 1:36 p.m. Tuesday, becoming the 39th homicide victim of the year in Minneapolis.
