A man was found fatally stabbed late overnight in north Minneapolis, turning a quiet stretch near 30th and Girard avenues N into an active crime scene that stretched well into the next day, police said Thursday. Investigators initially released only limited information as they worked to piece together what happened.
According to Star Tribune, Minneapolis Police Sgt. Garrett Parten confirmed the location of the stabbing and said that “police will be releasing further information later in the day.” Reporters noted that investigators stayed at the scene into Thursday afternoon as detectives collected evidence and documented the area.
