Gunfire hit four people Monday night in north Minneapolis at a gas station with a reputation for violence, authorities said.

The incident occurred about 8:15 p.m. outside Winner Gas on West Broadway at the intersection with N. Lyndale Avenue, police said.

Police said all four people, three men and one juvenile male, were expected to survive.

Three of the males were taken by emergency responders to the hospital, while a fourth walked into North Memorial Health Hospital, according to police.

No arrests have been announced, and police have yet to address a motive for the gunfire.

In August, gunfire broke out near Winner Gas, which was dubbed by some locals as "Murder Station" and sits on a street corner with a history of violence. Responding officers found a fatally wounded man, who later was identified as 31-year-old Prince Hinton.
