ROBBINSDALE, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating after police shot and wounded a man in the Minneapolis suburb of Robbinsdale.
Police said officers were called about a suicidal person with a gun inside a home late Saturday. The person who called police met officers outside.
Officers tried repeatedly to contact the man from outside the home. The man came out of the home with a gun and ignored commands to stop as he began moving toward officers. KMSP-TV reports an officer shot the man, who was taken to a hospital.
BCA spokeswoman Jill Oliveira told The Associated Press the man is being treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
