The Somali Outlaws are a Somali American gang. The gang originated in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.

History

[edit]

The Somali Outlaws is a street gang consisting of Somali American youths.[2] Mustafa Ali, the leader of the Outlaws, was shot three times in the chest and killed on October 11, 2019.[1]

Territory

[edit]

The Outlaws' principal territory encompasses the area around the Karmel Mall in south Minneapolis, and in Saint Paul, Minnesota.[3] They are also located in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood, which has a high concentration of Somali-Americans and Somali immigrants.

Rival gangs

[edit]

The Outlaws' main rivals are Hot Boyz, Madhiban With Attitude, and 1627 Boys, a gang named after a high-rise apartment building in Cedar-Riverside.[3] A shooting on one gang's turf can be followed hours, and sometimes minutes later, by a shooting in a rival gang's area.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
