A man was found shot to death late Saturday at a residential St. Paul intersection, and police are looking for the killer, authorities said Sunday.

Officers were joined by Fire Department paramedics about 11:15 p.m. at N. Kennard Street and Ross Avenue on St. Paul's East Side and saw the young man down in the street, police said.

Emergency responders declared him dead at the scene from a gunshot, according to police. His identity hasn't been disclosed.

No arrests have been announced, and police haven't disclosed the circumstances around the shooting.

A neighbor told police about hearing three shots about 90 minutes earlier and a car "peeling off," according to emergency dispatch audio.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call police at 651-266-5650.

This killing is St. Paul's fourth homicide this year.
