Two Cars Struck By Bullets

On Monday, June 26th at about 5:30 P.M. there was a report of shots fired On Norton near Maryland in St.Paul. It appears two groups of people exchanged several shots at each other. Three of those shots struck the vehicle of a senior citizen whose residence is close by. Another struck the door frame of a car driven by a woman taking her child to a sporting event. The parties involved then left the area and went East on Maryland toward Jackson St. Several squads responded and were aided by the State Patrol helicopter but were unable to apprehend or identify the suspects.

No one was injured in this case and it is still under investigation.
