Today, I woke up and read this:
A man was found shot to death at 2 a.m. today when police responded to reports of a shooting in the 5300 block of Chicago Ave. S. The man was found in a stairwell, and was dead at the scene, police said. The man’s identity has not yet been released. No one is in custody and police are asking that anyone with information on the shooting call the Minneapolis Police Department tip line at 612-692-tips (8477).
Living two blocks away, I naturally grab my camera and go down to see what happened. I hadn’t heard anything during the early morning hours, certainly not a gunshot.
