There was a mass shooting at Boom Island Park in Minneapolis during a big event, perhaps a barbecue. Police responded at around 9:30 p.m. to the sounds of gunfire and discovered that there was pandemonium with more than 100 people running in fear. It appears that multiple shooters were involved in the shootout.

A woman was found injured in a vehicle near the park entrance and died at the hospital. Five men were also shot: three were found lying on the ground, and two others were driven to hospitals in private cars. One of the victims sustained life-threatening injuries, while the others sustained non-life-threatening ones.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara was gravely concerned with the sheer brutality and the amount of rounds being discharged. He again stated the jaw-dropping nature of the incident and the amount of evidence recovered.
