Two men shot multiple times in St. Paul early Tuesday were rushed to nearby Regions Hospital.
The shooting happened at the intersection of Western Avenue North and Lawson Avenue, where St. Paul police were called to at 12:15 a.m.
An officer said both men appeared to be in their twenties, but he had no other information about them. He declined to comment about their injuries, except to say one man required surgery.
Police combed the area around the shooting with K-9 dogs but came up empty. They were searching for up to three suspects based on the varying statements given by people near the crime scene.
