The gunshots were possibly fired from a vehicle, police said. Crime Watch said the suspect vehicle was described as a white Dodge Charger with tinted windows.
Just 24 hours earlier, two people were killed and seven others injured in three separate shootings across Minneapolis. One of the deceased victims was just 16-years-old.
4th Street Saloon is just down the street from Merwin Liquors and Winner Gas, nicknamed “murder station” by some activists, at the intersection of Lyndale Avenue North and West Broadway Avenue. Four people were injured in a shooting outside Winner Gas Thursday night. Last Friday, four people were shot outside Merwin Liquors, meaning 12 people have been shot in the area in the last week.
