Witnesses said two sedans — one blue and one silver — were spotted driving south at a high rate of speed and the driver of the silver sedan tried to turn left on the 3400 block of Silver Lake Road. However, they said the blue sedan pulled up next to it and a person inside that vehicle fired about three shots in the direction of the silver sedan.
In an update provided Tuesday, police said they were able to identify the suspect vehicle, the two parties associated with the vehicle on the day of the shooting, and the victim and his vehicle, thanks to reviewing video that was available in the area.
The victim, who was interviewed by police, wasn’t injured.
Officials say the suspect vehicle has been recovered and processed for evidence. Additional evidence was seized, and police say it is being analyzed by the Hennepin County Crime Lab.
As of this time, formal charges are still pending and an investigation is still underway.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call police at 612-782-3350, or Hennepin County Dispatch at 952-258-5321.
