Two Dead, Three Officers Injured in Minneapolis Apartment Building ShootingPreviousNext

A shooting at a downtown Minneapolis apartment building on September 2 left two civilians and the suspect dead, with three police officers injured, two by gunfire. Police responded within minutes after a 911 call, encountering a haze that limited visibility inside the building. Seven victims were hospitalized, with one dying later. Authorities, including state and federal agencies, are investigating the incident. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and officials expressed support for first responders and victims, while the motive remains unclear.
