July 22, 2025 (MINNEAPOLIS) Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara announced today that a brother and a sister are dead, and a mother was injured in a domestic-related shooting.
At approximately 12:37 a.m., Fifth Precinct officers responded to a report of a shooting in the 100 block of East 59th Street.
Inside an apartment, officers found a deceased man in his 20s, a deceased woman in her 20s, and another woman in her 40s suffering from apparent non-life-threatening injuries. The injured woman was transported to Hennepin Healthcare for treatment.
Preliminary information indicates a domestic dispute escalated into gunfire. The two women were shot, and the man appears to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
“This appears to be a heartbreaking tragedy that has destroyed a family,” said Chief O’Hara. “While the investigation is ongoing, our hearts are with the surviving family members as we work to understand what occurred.”
Investigators continue working to determine the sequence of events leading up to the shooting.
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office will release the name of the deceased, along with the official cause and manner of death.
Case number: 25-203599
