As our own Doug Powers reported earlier, the owner of a Minnesota "day care" that Nick Shirley investigated has been charged with fraud. The day care allegedly pocketed more than $4.6 million in fraudulent claims before closing in January after Shirley's investigation.
Another alleged Minnesota fraudster targeted for arrest this morning reportedly jumped from a fourth-story balcony and made a successful run for it.

He jumped off a roof and hopped off

Mohammed Omar, you say? That sounds Somali. Fox News reports:
Newly released video showed the dramatic escape of a fugitive wanted for $3.3 million in Medicaid fraud as he fled from federal authorities.
Muhammad Abdulqadir Omar, 32, was spotted on video running away from federal agents before seemingly falling on the pavement and hopping away on one foot.
Omar is charged with conspiracy to commit health care fraud and four counts of health care fraud, according to officials.
The charges come after authorities uncovered a scheme to submit $3.3 million in fraudulent claims to the Housing Stabilization Services (HSS) Program of Minnesota Medicaid, of which roughly $3.2 million was paid.

He hopped away on one foot? Catch this guy!
That doesn't necessarily mean he is guilty. Sometimes people just want some exercise. 🤣

Jumping off the balcony is WAY easier than walking down the stairs.

We can learn a thing or two from the Somalis

You’ll probably find him in the ER seeking medical attention for his broken ankle.
— Sammy Traysett (@SammyTrayslhap) May 21, 2026
Maybe check the local urgent care facility and ask the radiologist because he clearly broke an ankle.

Insane. Fraud suspect jumps off a 4th-story balcony and bolts while taxpayers eat millions stolen from kids' nutrition programs. Hunt him down, deny bond, and make damn sure he never flees again.

Not on the run...definitely on the limp

Great, not only did he steal from the tax payers but now we get to pay his medical bill for getting hurt. pic.twitter.com/M5PWG3iQvy

He can’t be more than a hop, skip and jump away.
— Jamazel (@JRAzeltine) May 21, 2026
Maybe check the governor’s mansion?
He knows the fed will bring the hammer down. No sweet deals in some Minnesota court. Throw the book at him.

If this guys is wearing flip flops, and the DOJ can’t catch him…
— 🇺🇸 Rolo 🇺🇸 (@Rolo_1776) May 21, 2026
We have much bigger problems.
He'll probably just blend in with a group of the hundreds of others of Mohammed Omars in Minnesota.
Just your average “Minnesota Man.”

"On the run."
