MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – A shooting in Minneapolis early Saturday morning injured a man, woman and teenager before leading to the arrest of four adults and a 15-year-old boy.

What we know

Police say they responded to an area near Washingon Avenue North and 2nd Avenue North after hearing gunshots just after 3:15 a.m.

They then found a 48-year-old man, a 27-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy with gunshot wounds. The man and boy had injuries described as “potentially life-threatening” while the woman is expected to survive. All were taken to the hospital. 

Police say they then stopped a vehicle at the intersection of 1st Avenue North and 4th Street that they believed was linked to the shooting. Inside they reportedly found a 22-year-old woman, a 20-year-old man, a 20-year-old woman, a 19-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy. 

Officers also recovered a gun from the vehicle during the traffic stop. 

The four adults were then booked into jail while the teen was taken to the juvenile detention center.  

Investigators then later discharged shell casings and damage to buildings on both sides of 2nd Avenue near Washington Avenue. 

Police also recovered two stolen motorcycles. 

What we don’t know 

Police have not released information on what may have led to the shooting. 

A pillar of Minneapolis’s cycling community is shutting down after 22 years in business. The Hub Bike Co-op announced Friday that it’s closing both of its locations, on Minnehaha Avenue and in Dinkytown, on Sept. 30.

Brian Dowdy, a worker-owner, said that industry conditions have been unfavorable to small bike retailers.

A supply glut followed strong sales during the pandemic shutdown, and he said that the e-bike boom has been of little benefit to the Hub because many manufacturers sell directly to consumers.

Dowdy said the stores drew a diverse clientele and offered space for DIYers to learn how to repair their own bikes.

“I think we’re of course sad about the closure and really proud of the work we’ve done as a democratically-run workplace and all the people we’ve welcomed into that shop,” he said.

People who’ve dropped bikes off to be fixed will have their repairs completed on the date promised.

Dowdy said staff and the ownership group are busy winding down the business and preparing to liquidate the inventory. He said that they’ve built valuable skill sets, and many may continue in the bike industry.

“Working at the Hub has been life-changing for a lot of us, both because we love bikes, we love what cycling does for our community, and because of the unique community of people that run that shop,” Dowdy said.

But midway through the event’s first day, Boom Island felt like a gamble that would pay off. Griffith was impressed by the turnout on a sunny day with temperatures in the 90s. And the size of the park, which can hold 30,000 fans compared to the old venue’s 16,000, holds promise for future growth.
