MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Hennepin County prosecutors have charged another 10 people for damaging and looting Minneapolis businesses last week.
Investigators say they caught them going in and out of several downtown businesses after a crowd mistook a man's suicide for an officer-involved shooting.
These are nine of the 10 people facing felony charges:
-
- Daniel Lamoreaux-Enno: He's accused of burglarizing a business on the 6000 block of Portland Avenue South -- more than six miles south of the looting epicenter. The owner says he saw him inside smashing things with a baseball bat. Police say he refused to exit the building, and was later found in a back room.

- Marquies Scott: Police say he's an accomplice of Rock's, and he allegedly admitted putting items from the Foot Locker into his vehicle, with an infant inside. He told investigators he thought the items had been paid for.
-
- Gregory Lee: Police say officers found him hiding inside a clinic's pharmacy in the 2800 block of Nicollet Avenue. He allegedly had two glass vials with liquid, some pills and a bottle of acetaminophen in his possession.
