"Preliminary information at this time indicates that the shooting may have been the result of a previous altercation between an individual or individuals known to each other," MPD said.
WCCO spoke with a resident of the building who just got back home Sunday night from a weekend in Chicago.
"My neighbor knocked on the door and she was like, 'Michelle, three people got shot on the second floor,'" said Michelle Pippion. "It's crazy, it's scary. I'm ready to move, like ASAP, like I wish they would let me break my lease."
