Suspect Identified in Minneapolis Bus Shooting That Injured 3, Police Say

The investigation now focuses on a suspect, with two victims still listed in critical condition.

Overview

  • Metro Transit police said Saturday they have identified a suspect but made no arrests in Friday’s north Minneapolis bus shooting.
  • Investigators say the shooter exited near North 36th and Penn, then fired back into the bus.
  • Three passengers were shot; one has been released from the hospital, and two remain hospitalized in critical condition, with one described as stable.
  • Officers continue to search for the suspect and review evidence as they work to determine what led to the attack.
  • Metro Transit reported temporary stop suspensions along Penn Avenue during the response, and earlier coverage showed a shattered bus window as officials note overall transit crime has fallen this year despite lower security presence on buses than on light rail.
