One person is in critical condition and two others are injured after a shooter opened fire on a Metro Transit bus in north Minneapolis on Friday afternoon.
The shooting occurred after the suspect stepped off the bus, said Metro Transit spokesman Drew Kerr. The incident occurred shortly before 3:30 p.m. at the intersection of 36th Avenue N. and Penn Avenue N.
Police are searching for a suspect.
Through September of this year, Minneapolis police reported a drop in nonfatal shooting victims, continuing a downward trajectory since a peak in 2021, according to a report from the Minnesota Justice Research Center.
