Oh, come on! Which one of us was it? Look at that smile on his face in the pic. He's thinking, "Crap. The guys on MNGunTalk are gonna give me $h!t for this one!"

But seriously, Fridley has long been a waypoint for drug running through the cities. He supposedly was buying some snacks and said they'd been on the road a while. He's packin' heat to protect the contrband in the car. Good guys wear holsters. The criminals shove it down their pants. He's well on his way back to Florida or wherever.

Any news on these two?

They still haven't caught the guy that shot my neighbor after following him home from that Target either.

It's surprising nobody got a plate and direction.

My wife was asking me about how a gun goes off accidentally. I told her it's almost always because someone had their booger finger on the bang switch when they shouldn't.

Other than the fact this will disappear in the news, I hope we get more info on this. The us bank right on central at the target intersection got robbed a couple months ago as well. This apparently is turning into quite a ad corner?

I almost think it was a coincidence that it happened where it did. I believe the guy told the clerk they(Bonnie and clod) were on a "...10-12 hr road trip..' as best as I can recall.

That's what was reported on a lot of the news updates that I've heard.

The preferred terminology is "tactical unintended discharges", especially if you're talking about law enforcement officers in LA.

From the bookface:

Police Clips is reporting the name of the suspect is Seth Allen Millner

He's got quite a record in MN & WI and seems to like Target

"Two Wisconsin residents are in custody for alleged involvement in a string of burglaries across the metro area over the last several months.

Seth Allan Millner, 23, and Karina Petrovna Sarkisyan, 22, both of Cumberland, Wis., were arrested Feb. 16 while sitting in a car in a Target parking lot in Lino Lakes"

I don't see anything in the linked article linking the two idiots in Fridley with these two idiots.

Police Clips had the male listed as the Fridley suspect on their Dec 15th posting, something about 6pm... PP article attached for background info - I'll find the link again.

Fox 9 just reported the guy was this Seth Millner mentioned above. Picked him up driving a stolen car, drugs, etc. Apparently he admitted it was his gun that went off. Winners!

INOR wrote:Seems likely it's a permit holder and he should have stayed and taken responsibility. And frankly seems kind of dumb that he didn't. Targets usually have tons of surveillance cams. So, guessing they will identify him eventually. If he used a credit card to pay, they'll identify him from the surveillance vid.


Police say Millner was arrested Thursday, Dec. 17, on suspicion of driving a stolen vehicle, possession of narcotics, possession of a firearm by an ineligible person and possession of a stolen handgun.
He has so far been formally charged in Anoka County with possession of a firearm by an ineligible person; police say more charges are pending.

Just a thug. They wish it had been a permit holder.
