Abubeker Gemechu Abduraman, 26, was found dead inside the lounge after police responded to a weapons complaint. A friend of Abduraman said staff from the bar told him a man had been kicked out of the bar and then shot through the window.

Amin Yussuf, 29, is wanted for first-degree murder, unauthorized possession of a firearm and two counts of attempted murder using a firearm, said a Monday EPS news release.

Yussuf also goes by the names of Abdirizak Yussug, Craig Yussuf, Mohemed Yussuf, Mohemed Mohamed and Mohammed Farrah, police said. He has connections to northern Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and the Northwest Territories.

Yussuf is considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached. Police are asking anyone with information to contact them.
