(KNSI) — The St. Cloud Police Department is investigating a shooting that happened Tuesday night.
A press release says officers responded to the area of the 800 block of 11th Street South at 10:56 p.m. after hearing multiple gunshots. Investigators say the suspect or suspects fled the scene. A short time later, a 32-year-old woman from St. Cloud showed up at the hospital with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the leg. Authorities say they believe the victim or someone she was with was the intended target.
The area has seen a spate of shootings recently.
St. Cloud police say just after 10:20 Friday night, officers responded to a report of gunshots in the area of the 1000 block of 11th Street South. Witnesses told police two possible suspects had fled the scene. Officers say no victims were found, but they found multiple shell casings on 11th Street South.
Sunday afternoon, police were called to the 1200 block of 14th Street North after officers were told someone fired a handgun and was seen going into a house within a block of the shooting. Police say they tried to contact the person, but no one in that house was cooperative, so a search warrant was obtained for the home, and the St. Cloud SWAT Team was called in to assist.
July 6th, four people were shot in an alley near 6th Avenue South and 11th Street South.
No arrests have been made.
