5 people wounded in separate south Minneapolis shootings
Police say at least two of the shootings are connected with likely the same shooters.
MINNEAPOLIS — Three people, including two teens, are recovering after being shot inside their Uptown Minneapolis home late Sunday night. That shooting was the third within a 15-minute window in south Minneapolis that left a total of five people wounded.
Police say at least two of the shootings are connected with likely the same shooters.
A relative told KARE 11 photographer David Peterlinz that two kids were playing video games at about 11 p.m. in the back room of a home near the 1300 block of West 28th Street when gunfire erupted outside in an alley. The witness said she heard about a dozen gunshots, some of which pierced the wall and shattered a window in the kids’ room.
The teens’ mother said that her 13-year-old son was hit in the calf and her 17-year-old son was hit in the hand. Another adult in the home was hit in the foot.
Police later sent out a press release confirming the information. They said the three victims, ages 13, 17 and 29, were taken to Hennepin County Healthcare with gunshot wounds to their extremities that were thought to be non-life-threatening.
Minneapolis police specified that they believe this was a targeted shooting and not stray bullets that entered the home.
Responding officers searched the area and later served a warrant at a nearby residence where a juvenile was arrested and booked on an unrelated matter.
Police say no one has been arrested in the actual shooting.
Minneapolis officers responded to a second incident in the Uptown area just minutes earlier Sunday evening. Squads were dispatched just before 11 p.m. to the intersection of Lyndale and Lake St. where they found spent shell casings and other evidence of a shooting.
Investigators learned that a man in his 20s had been transported in a private vehicle to Hennepin County Healthcare with life-threatening gunshot wounds. Preliminary information gathered suggests the victim was on a sidewalk when he was shot, and that the gunman continued to fire on the man as he lay on the ground.
So far, there have been no arrests made in the case.
Ten minutes prior to that shooting, a man was shot at East 32nd Street and Nicollet Avenue, but refused medical treatment.
