Mugged by Minsc

Even after all this time, the game still has fresh surprises for me!
In this play through, I have taken Edwin and completed his mission to burn the witch, which is most unusual for me. Then, after finally dispatching Mulahey, I return to Nashkel to turn in the results, and then headed back to the mines map, to go and have a word with prism...
Instead, I got a random encounter where I was ambushed by 6 hobgoblins AND MINSC! I suspect there must have been a Boo too, but I did not spot him.
Has anyone else been mugged by an angry ranger, with or without an associated set of hobgoblins?
My best guess is that Minsc might be able to join any random encounter you hit on leaving Nashkel if you have murderated his witch, but as this is the first time it has happened to me, it is all speculation.

If so, how odd.
I just killed Dynaheir and Minsc attacked in Nashkel. He seems to know whether you killed her or she just got killed by gnolls (which usually happens, poor, brave self sacrificing Dynaheir, what a hero she is).
