Officials are asking the public for more information on a stray bullet that ended up lodged in a 62-year-old woman’s arm on Sunday.
The woman was running on River Avenue North, which follows the Mississippi River in Sauk Rapids, Minn., when she was struck by a bullet in the forearm just before 10:45 a.m. Sunday, according to Sauk Rapids Police Chief Perry Beise.
The bullet had to be surgically removed at St. Cloud Hospital.
Beise said no one with a firearm was seen in the area, and he is asking people to contact him if they have any information about an individual in St. Cloud, Le Sauk Township, Sartell or Sauk Rapids who might have shot a gun during that time.
The Sauk Rapids Police Department’s non-emergency line is 320-251-9451.
