Minneapolis police said a 16-year-old boy was shot and killed on the city's North Side on Thursday night.
Officers responded at 8:15 p.m. Thursday to reports of gunfire near the corner of Knox and Plymouth avenues, according to Police Department spokesman Garrett Parten. They found a shooting victim with life-threatening injuries, and performed first aid until he was taken to Hennepin Healthcare where he died, Parten said.
No one else was injured in the incident. No suspects are in custody and homicide investigators have few other details at this time, Parten said. The site of the shooting is just down the street from the department's 4th Precinct headquarters.
It's the city's 63rd homicide this year, according to a Star Tribune database.
