Gunfire shattered the quiet in a Brooklyn Park neighborhood early Sunday when multiple rounds were fired into a home on the 9900 block of Scott Avenue North around 1:17 a.m. No one inside was hurt, and by the time officers pulled up, the suspects were already gone. Detectives spent the early morning canvassing the area and collecting evidence from the scene.
Police: Residence Was Targeted
In a post on the Brooklyn Park Police Department page, officers said they responded to multiple 911 calls and found several spent shell casings outside the home. Investigators believe the residence was specifically targeted. Officers made contact with the people inside, confirmed no one was injured, and began processing the area for evidence. No arrests have been made, and the case remains very much active.
Local Coverage Confirms Timeline
Local outlet KSTP reported that officers were dispatched at about 1:17 a.m., that the house was hit by multiple rounds, and that no injuries were reported. Police told reporters the suspects took off in a vehicle before officers arrived and that they are looking for witnesses, including anyone who might have doorbell or security camera video from the area.
How To Help And Context
Investigators are asking anyone with information, especially anyone who saw a vehicle leaving Scott Avenue North around the time of the shooting, to send an anonymous tip through Tip411 or use the reporting options on the city’s police alerts page. Brooklyn Park also publicly tracks shots-fired calls and maintains an interactive “Shots Fired” dashboard that lets residents review where and when incidents have been reported. Both tools are available on the city website at Police Alerts and Tips and Police Open Data.
Police say the investigation is ongoing and that more details will be released as they are confirmed. Anyone with information is urged to contact authorities through the channels listed above.
