Eugene V. Fleming, 26, of Minneapolis, was shot just after midnight Sunday in the 2400 block of N. Emerson Avenue. ShotSpotter activations sent officers to the scene, where they found Fleming in a vehicle. He was declared dead at the scene.
Lindsey David Morris, 48, of Minneapolis, was fatally shot in the torso Sunday night. Morris died at North Memorial Health Hospital after he was found wounded inside a car near the intersection of N. Logan and Lowry avenues.
