Man dead after shooting in Marcy-Holmes neighborhood

A 40-year-old man is dead after a shooting in the Marcy-Holmes neighborhood of Minneapolis in the early morning hours on Saturday.

Around 3:45 a.m., officers from the Minneapolis Police Department were called to the intersection of University Avenue Southeast and 6th Street Southeast on a report of a shooting.

Law enforcement found the man lying in the street suffering a life-threatening gunshot wound. He was brought to the hospital where he later died, officials say.

On Sunday, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office said the victim — identified as 40-year-old Kenneth Maurice Johnson of Wayne, Michigan — died of a gunshot wound to the chest.

MPD officers say the shooting stemmed from a physical altercation that happened between a group of people in a building at 601 University Avenue Southeast.
