Sierra Robinson information

Sierra Robinson 24, knew Dariaz “DL” Higgins for 7 years. This is from the other woman who was wounded when DL shot Sierra. Sierra had been “messing around” and Robinson became pregnant — and that “DL and Sierra stayed together with their child, Noelani.”

The complaint noted Higgins was formerly the women’s “pïmp.”

In February, “Sierra no longer wanted to be with DL and she moved to Las Vegas, leaving the child with DL.” But once in Las Vegas, Sierra tried to get Noelani back from Higgins. Eventually he agreed and on Saturday, 9 March “Sierra flew back to Milwaukee.”

Higgins agreed to let Sierra have Noelani on Monday. They were set to meet near 22nd and Fond du Lac. The woman who was wounded in the shooting told police she went with Sierra for this meeting — but the child was not with Higgins. Instead, the complaint said the “three of them drove around, smoking weed, drinking and talking about old times.” The woman told police she noticed Higgins had “a small, mini Draco AK style rifle in the driver’s map pocket.”

Higgins finally drove to an apartment building near 91st and Mill Road and “he told them that was where Noelani was.” The woman and Sierra were walking ahead of Higgins to the apartment when the woman said she heard gunshots. The woman said she “immediately felt pain to her stomach and she looked back and saw DL holding the Draco with two hands shooting at her and Sierra.” After the shooting, Higgins got back into the SUV and drove away.

BCA Conducting Death Investigation in Steele County

ST. PAUL — The Minnesota Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) is investigating the death of a young girl who was located deceased in Steele County, Minn., Friday evening.

The Southern Minnesota Regional Medical Examiner’s Office has preliminarily identified the victim as Noelani Robinson, 2. The medical examiner determined the preliminary cause and manner of death to be homicide due to blunt force trauma to the head.

A passerby reported seeing a blanket and possible remains in a ditch along Hwy. 218 about a mile north of Blooming Prairie, Minn., on Friday, March 15, around 6 p.m. Law enforcement from the Blooming Prairie Police Department and the Steele County Sheriff’s Office responding to the scene located the child’s body wrapped in a blanket. She appeared to have been at that location for a number of days. The sheriff’s office requested that BCA conduct the investigation.

BCA agents and crime scene personnel responded to the scene in Steele County and worked throughout the night to collect evidence. In addition, early this morning BCA agents and crime scene personnel executed a search warrant at a hotel in Austin, Minn., where it is believed Higgins stayed at one point during the past week.

When, where and who killed Noelani Robinson will be determined during the course of the BCA’s investigation.

The BCA is conducting the investigation in partnership with the Steele and Mower County sheriff’s offices and the Austin, Blooming Prairie and Milwaukee police departments.

This is an active and ongoing investigation. When complete, the BCA will turn its findings over to the appropriate county attorney for review.

Under Minnesota law, the BCA is prohibited from providing details about an investigation while it is active.
