Man dies, another injured in connection with attempted armed robbery

Minneapolis police said a 29-year-old man died at the scene, while another man was treated at the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.

MINNEAPOLIS — One person is dead and another injured after a shooting Wednesday night near a bar in north Minneapolis.

Minneapolis Police say officers were called to 328 West Broadway Avenue North around 9 p.m. on a report of a shooting in the parking lot of Fourth Street Saloon. When squads arrived, they found a 29-year-old man suffering from life-threatening injuries. Despite life-saving measures, the man died at the scene. 

On Friday, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner identified the victim as Antwan Eiland, of Minneapolis. His death was ruled a homicide due to multiple gunshot wounds.

Police also learned around the time of the shooting that another man arrived at HCMC where he was treated for a non-life-threatening gunshot. They said they believe the shootings are related. 

Police spokesman officer Garrett Parten told reporters the shooting occurred after an apparent armed robbery attempt near the north Minneapolis saloon, but it's unclear whether the men were actually inside the bar before the incident unfolded. 

No one has been arrested at this point and police say there are currently no suspects. If you have any information on this shooting, you can call CrimeStoppers of Minnesota anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
