Officials on Friday identified the man who was fatally shot outside a north Minneapolis bar earlier this week.
Antwan T. Eiland, 29, of Minneapolis, was shot multiple times about 9 p.m. Wednesday outside the 4th Street Saloon in the 300 block of West Broadway Ave., the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office said.
Officers learned that another man showed up at HCMC with a wound that was not life threatening. His identity was withheld by police.
No arrests had been announced as of midday Friday.
The shooting "involved an apparent, interrupted armed robbery," police said in a statement late Thursday afternoon. No other details were released.
There have been 45 homicides in Minneapolis so far this year, according to a Star Tribune database. That compares with 67 in the city at this time in 2022.
