A man was stabbed to death late Thursday in north Minneapolis, authorities said.
The stabbing occurred about 9:30 p.m. in the 2200 block of N. 4th Street, police said. No arrests have been announced.
This is the third homicide in Minneapolis since Tuesday.
"Frantic 911 calls begging officers to come quickly" first alerted police to the stabbing, a police statement read.
People who knew the victim, in his 30s, "were attempting medical care but could not provide details as to how the male was injured," the police statement continued.
Officers took over lifesaving efforts outside before paramedics stepped in and took the man to the hospital, where he died, police said. The man's identity has not been released.
