1 dead, 5 injured in shooting...

Minneapolis police are investigating a shooting at Boom Island Park that left one person dead and five injured by gunfire Sunday night.

At a news conference Monday morning, police Chief Brian O’Hara said calls reporting shots fired started coming in around 9:30 p.m. on Sunday. Officers responded and found about 100 people in what O’Hara called a “very chaotic scene.”

Investigators believe there had been a large gathering at the park and an altercation led to gunfire. O’Hara said there were likely multiple shooters.

Police found three people injured in the park and another injured person in a car near the park entrance. All were taken to nearby hospitals. Two other people injured by gunfire transported themselves to the hospital.

A woman who was shot died at a hospital from her injuries. One of the other victims suffered life-threatening injuries. The remaining victims sustained non-life-threatening injuries.

Police also said another person was injured in the melee surrounding the shooting, but was not shot.

All of the victims were adults. Police have not shared their ages or other identifying information.

O’Hara said officers remained at the park Monday morning, cataloging an extensive scene.

“There are literally hundreds of pieces of evidence that they are going through,” O’Hara said. “It’s obvious that a whole lot of rounds were fired here.”
