Two men have been arrested in connection with an attempted robbery that led to shots fired outside a Shakopee Wal-Mart on Tuesday.

The men, ages 20 and 21, are from Bloomington, Shakopee police said. Police are not searching for additional suspects, according to a statement.

The store at 8101 Old Carriage Court was put on lockdown about 6:30 p.m. Tuesday after a Craigslist transaction turned into an attempted robbery and the shots were fired. No one was injured.

One of two men pulled a gun and tried to rob the victim, police said.

The Scott County Attorney's Office will review the case for charging.
