MINNEAPOLIS, -- Six shootings in a span of 6 hours ending early Monday left five men wounded in Minneapolis, two critically, police said.
"We had a busy night," city police Sgt. Bill Palmer said. "I don't think these are random crimes. These appear to be arguments that took place between the men."
No arrests had been made in any of the shootings, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported.
The first shooting occurred during an attempted armed robbery about 9:30 p.m. Sunday. The victim was shot in the hand when he resisted, police said.
That incident was followed by one at 11:30 p.m. in which a 26-year-old man was critically wounded when shot in the head while sitting in a car outside a restaurant.
Then at 2:15 a.m., a 21-year-old man was shot in the head downtown and a 19-year-old man was shot in the upper body at the same time. A 23-year-old man was shot minutes later during an argument and another man walked into Hennepin County Medical Center soon after with a gunshot wound to his leg, only to leave without being treated, Palmer said.
Other than the 21-year-old and 19-year-old victims, Palmer said, "as far as we know, none of these are connected."
