A 24-year-old Minneapolis man was found fatally shot in a north Minneapolis parking lot early Sunday, while two others were treated for noncritical gunshot wounds, police said.
A Minneapolis police officer said he heard shots around 4 a.m. in the area of Emerson Avenue and W. Broadway. While en route to the area, a ShotSpotter notification indicated shots fired on the 1100 block of W. Broadway.
Officers found the victim and were notified that two other people had gone to area hospitals.
Officers and investigators canvassed the area and interviewed residents. No suspects are in custody.
The Hennepin County medical examiner's office will release the name of the deceased man later, along with the nature and cause of death.
