Minneapolis mass shooting: 4th victim dies in hospital, suspect arrested
The Brief
A mass shooting in Minneapolis on Tuesday killed three people and injured two others.
Police announced that a fourth victim, a 28-year-old man, died from their injuries on Thursday. The current condition of the remaining victim is unknown.
Authorities say a 34-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the mass shooting.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Police say a fourth victim from the mass shooting in Minneapolis late Tuesday night has died from their injuries.
The backstory
Just before midnight on Tuesday, police responded to a shooting along 25th Street near Bloomington Avenue. At the scene, officers found five victims – two men, two women, and a teen boy – who had all been shot.
A 28-year-old man who was considered in "grave" condition ultimately died from his injuries on Thursday. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office will release the victim's name, along with the cause and manner of his death.
Three people were pronounced dead at the scene, including a 27-year-old man, a 20-year-old woman, and a 17-year-old boy.
A woman who sustained potentially life-threatening injuries in the shooting was also transported to the hospital. Police have not provided an update on her condition.
The arrest
Police say a 34-year-old man has been arrested in connection with Tuesday's mass shooting. The U.S. Marshals North Start Fugitive Task Force and the FBI SWAT Team executed a search warrant on Thursday around 3:40 p.m. on the1600 block of South 4th Street, where a suspect was taken into custody without incident.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara reiterated that the shooter was known to at least some of the people involved, and the shooting was not random. He remains in custody where authorities say he will face federal and state charges.
"This is a significant step forward in what has been an intense and fast-moving investigation into the most violent incident this year," said Chief O'Hara. "I'm deeply grateful to all of our law enforcement partners who responded with urgency and continue working alongside us to hold others accountable for the serious crimes our community has endured."
Minneapolis violence
Minneapolis police responded to at least six separate shootings that left five people dead, and six others injured from late Tuesday night into Wednesday evening. Police believe some of the recent spate of violence in south Minneapolis may be connected to gang violence within the Native community in Minneapolis.
A little over 13 hours after the mass shooting, police responded to another shooting in the area of Cedar Avenue and 17th Avenue, just blocks away from the first incident. A man in his 30s was killed, and police said two young children narrowly avoided injury when a bullet struck their SUV and passed just inches from their legs. Authorities are investigating if this shooting may be connected to the initial mass shooting incident.
What we don't know
Wednesday night, Minneapolis police were on the scene of a shooting on Lake Street at 15th Avenue South where a man in his 50s was killed. Early Wednesday morning, another man was shot in the area of Lake Street and 15th Avenue South. That man survived his injuries.
Meanwhile, at least three people were injured in two shootings on Harriet Avenue and Girard Avenue.
It's unclear if any of these shootings are linked, or are connected to the larger spate of violence.

Woman killed in Boom Island Park shooting is identified
Woman killed in Boom Island Park shooting is identified originally appeared on Bring Me The News. The woman killed when gunfire erupted during a large gathering at Boom Island Park in Minneapolis on Sunday evening has been identified. Stageina Whiting, 23, of Brooklyn Center, died at Hennepin County Medical Center from a gunshot wound to the torso, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office has confirmed. Police arrived at the park around 9:30 p.m. to find Whiting severely injured after an altercation at the park escalated to a shooting. Six other people were injured in the incident, with five men shot – one of whom is in a life-threatening condition – and a woman knocked unconscious. Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara likened the aftermath of the shooting to a "war zone" due to the number of shell casings found at the scene. Police believe there was more than one shooter involved, but no arrests have been made as of Monday evening. The incident has been denounced as "completely unacceptable" by Mayor Jacob Frey, who said: "My heart is with the victims and their loved ones today. "This week, we're launching Operation Safe Summer – a coordinated effort with law enforcement partners at every level to prevent violence and keep people safe. We're going to keep working with our partners to keep incidents like this rare." Third District Rep. Ilhan Omar said: "I'm devastated by the tragic shooting at Boom Island Park last heart is with the victims, their families, and all those who were at the park during such a terrifying moment. Our community should feel safe in parks and public spaces no matter the time of day." This story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 2, 2025, where it first appeared.

1 dead, several wounded in Minnesota's Boom Island Park ‘war zone'
A woman was killed and five men wounded late Sunday when a mass shooting turned Minneapolis's Boom Island Park into a 'war zone,' officials said. Another woman was hospitalized after being knocked unconscious in the chaotic aftermath, Minnesota Police Chief Brian O'Hara told reporters at a Monday-morning press conference at the park. Investigators said there was likely more than one shooter, given the number of shell casings, and that no arrests had been made. The Hennepin County Medical examiner identified the woman killed as 23-year-old Stageina Katraya Shapryia Whiting from Brooklyn Center on Monday. She suffered a gunshot wound to the torso. The gunfire broke out during a dispute at a large gathering in the Mississippi River-adjacent park, O'Hara said, and calls began coming in around 9:30 p.m. Police arrived to find about 100 people in the park. Chief O'Hara said a large crowd had gathered at the park Sunday evening, perhaps for a BBQ, when an argument escalated into gunfire. His investigators believe multiple shooters were involved in the incident, as hundreds of pieces of evidence were strewn around the park, many of them empty shell casings. 'It's more akin to a war zone, the amount of casings found in the park. It's sickening and we need people to come forward,' O'Hara said. 'The level of violence displayed in this shooting is absolutely sickening, and our investigators will work diligently to bring whoever is responsible to justice.' Mayor Jacob Frey called the violence 'completely unacceptable' in a social media post stating that just this week, the city launched 'Operation Safe Summer' to curb violence. City statistics showed more than three dozen law enforcement units responded to the gunfire. CBS News reports that at least one Minneapolis City Council member wants to see Boom Island close its gates by 8 p.m.

7 things to know about former Baltimore restaurateur Gregory Pranzo: ‘rats in the dining room,' unpaid bills
In December 2024, staff at Baltimore's Docks on the Harbor restaurant woke up to find the eatery had closed overnight. The owner, New York-native Gregory Pranzo, would later be accused of emptying the restaurant of furniture, fixtures and decor, in a lawsuit filed by Baltimore-based developer Cordish Cos. Over several weeks of investigation, The Baltimore Sun found Pranzo launched multiple restaurants across six states and then abruptly closed them, leaving staff, business partners or landlords behind, along with millions of dollars in unpaid bills. The full story ran in print Sunday (and is online here: but here's a quick take on what you should know about Pranzo's business practices. Celebrity partner: Pranzo has opened and closed restaurants in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, New York and Connecticut over the last decade. He routinely partners with celebrities — including Guy Fieri, Mario Lopez and *NSYNC's Chris Kirkpatrick — and he has opened multiple franchises of Wahlburgers' restaurants, the Wahlberg-brother-owned burger chain (Donnie, Mark and their celebrity chef brother Paul). All save two of Pranzo's restaurants have closed, many racking up debt and health code violations along the way. Pests in food storage areas: In Baltimore, Docks on the Harbor also earned a closure order from the city's health department after an August 2024 inspection, that followed a customer's complaint about 'rats in the dining room.' Inspectors found 31 health code violations, including clouds of gnats, evidence of rodents and other pests in food storage areas, and a lack of water that prevented staff from washing their hands. The restaurant re-opened two days later, having satisfied most of the city's requirements. Health-related restaurant closure: Pranzo's Raleigh, North Carolina, Wahlburgers franchise was shut down after the department found his restaurant had lacked hot water for more than three months. The restaurant chose to close instead of immediately fixing the problem, and was evicted for nonpayment of rent before it could reopen. Multiple lawsuits: In Connecticut, Pranzo was sued by food vendor Sysco Connecticut LLC for an unpaid bill topping $30,000. Records show Pranzo has never responded to the suit and made no payments. In Georgia, Pranzo was sued by his former business partners, Finer Food Services, for more than $2 million. According to the agreement, signed by Pranzo, he admitted 'that he withdrew this sum over time from [Finer Food Services] and/or the [Finer Food Services subsidiaries] without the knowledge and/or consent of … majority member and manager, Barry Bierenbaum.' Unpaid judgments: The court ordered Pranzo to repay his partners, however, their lawyer said he has been unable to enforce the judgments. And in Florida, Pranzo is named in a lawsuit in district court, which alleges that he violated the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act, a federal law that bans businesses from using phones or fax machines for unsolicited advertisements. In that 2019 suit, Pranzo was accused of spamming fax machines with more than 125,000 unsolicited faxes over two years to advertise the opening of an Atlanta Wahlburgers. The case is ongoing. Docks on the Harbor property: In Baltimore, a civil suit against Pranzo by Cordish Cos. alleges Pranzo 'plundered' hundreds of thousands of dollars in fixtures from his Baltimore restaurant early one morning, walking away with tables and chairs, signage, stoves, refrigerators, decor and more. The lawsuit alleges that Pranzo was caught on security camera footage between the hours of 1 and 7 a.m. on Dec. 9 emptying out the restaurant space he rented from Cordish. $3.2 million lease allegedly unfulfilled: Pranzo also skipped out on a lease valued at about $3.2 million through 2032, a court document filed by Cordish's legal team alleges. Past-due charges between October and early December totaled more than $130,000 for rent and trash, water/sewer and HVAC service, per an account statement. Cordish's lawsuit argues Pranzo emptied out the restaurant with the intent to defraud. 'Pranzo's bad intent is readily evidenced by the midnight timing,' the suit reads. 'Why hide under the cover of night, unless he was following the playbook of Bob Irsay stealing the Colts in a Mayflower truck?' Lorraine Mirabella contributed reporting to this story.
