Two teenage males wounded in shooting at Eden Prairie High School homecoming game

Shots rang out at the Eden Prairie High School homecoming football game versus Minnetonka, prompting an evacuation of the stadium. Eden Prairie Police arrived at approximately 8:40 p.m. and discovered two teenage males, roughly 17 and 18 years old, wounded—one in the foot and the other in the calf. Both victims, who are not students at either school, were transported to Hennepin Healthcare where they received treatment for injuries that were not life-threatening.

Police described the shooting as a targeted act, released no suspect details, but indicated they have photographic evidence of the perpetrators. Law-enforcement sources have attributed responsibility to Somali gangs. The incident forced the cancellation of the second half of the game as multiple agencies responded to the scene.
