The Minneapolis Police Department confirmed an active shooter allegedly opened fire at a church on the south side of Minneapolis Wednesday.
"I'm monitoring reports of horrific violence in South Minneapolis," Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey wrote on X. "I'm in touch with Chief O'Hara and our emergency response team has been activated. We will share more information as soon as we can. Please give our officers the space they need to respond to the situation."
Wednesday's incident is just the latest in a violent 24 hours in Minneapolis. Three people were shot and killed in three separate shootings Tuesday afternoon into early Wednesday morning. At least eight people also suffered gunshot wounds in the incidents.
