3 Dead in S. Mpls. Shooting, Gunman on the Loose

Three people are dead after a shooting at a grocery store in south Minneapolis and the gunman remains on the loose.

The shooting occurred around 7:45 p.m. Wednesday at the Seward Market and Hamal Meat grocery store.

The store is located on E. Franklin Avenue near 24th Street. The intersection is about 5 blocks west of Franklin and Riverside.

Police are searching block by block with dogs looking for the shooter.

The deaths bring the total number of homicides in Minneapolis to four for the year. At this time last year, there were no homicides.

The first homicide occurred Saturday. Police found Dontae Deshun Johnson, 31, shot to death outside a vehicle on 6th Street N. No one has been arrested in the case.

So would that be a 400% increase in murder from the same time last year.
