GRAPHIC VIDEO: MN Man ‘Kevin’ Chue Feng Yang FB Live During FBI Standoff That Ended In Fatal Shooting

MINNEAPOLIS, MN. (THECOUNT) — Chue Feng Yang has been identified as the barricaded suspect shot and killed by FBI agents during an hours long standoff in Minneapolis on Thursday.

“Kevin” Yang, was livestreaming on Facebook Live during the 6-hour ordeal which ended in gunfire on Thursday Morning.

According to KFGO, FBI agents were working to serve an arrest warrant for Chue Feng Yang at about 5:00 a.m. They had used his cellphone to track him to a residence near the intersection of Dowling and Dupont avenues. Yang barricaded himself in the home prompting negotiations that went on for several hours.

“This person was on social media videotaping what was happening from inside the residence live,” said Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara. “And clearly, even from his own social media, this person was armed during this incident.”

An agent fatally shot Yang when he emerged from the home just after noon. He had a hostage tied to his torso, and a shotgun pointed at her head. Another woman was in the house at the time, and she was treated for a fentanyl overdose.

Chief O’Hara and Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt confirmed that no local agencies — neither MPD nor sheriff’s deputies — used their weapons. The sheriff’s office later clarified that a deputy had actually “discharged a less-lethal launcher during the incident.”

O’Hara said he did not know if the FBI agents were wearing body cameras, and the MPD officers were far back from the scene.

According to the federal warrant, Yang was wanted for a carjacking and police chase at the end of January. During the pursuit, a puppy was tossed from the moving car. Taho, as he was named by deputies, had to be euthanized last week.

In a statement, FBI Minneapolis said the agency “takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously. In accordance with FBI policy, the shooting incident is under investigation by the FBI’s Inspection Division.”
