A girl is dead and two teenagers are recovering from injuries after an apparent shooting in St. Paul late Wednesday, police said.
Officers were called to a residence on the 500 block of Case Avenue E. around 10:30 p.m. They found three teens who were injured. Paramedics then pronounced a girl dead, police spokesman Sgt. Mike Ernster said.
Her death is St. Paul's fourth homicide of 2017.
Two teens, an 18-year-old male and a 17-year-old girl, were taken to Regions Hospital, Ernster said.
The names of the victims have not been released. But several social media posts and a GoFundMe page identified the girl as Sadeya Hall, 15.
No one has been arrested.
According to the website Police Clips, a woman who called police said her daughter was shot in the back and a male was shot in the leg. She also said shots came into the house through a window and had been fired from the alley. Police said the shooting was not random. Anyone with information is asked to call St. Paul police at 651-266-5650.
