Whitley and many other individuals around the vicinity of the gas station were able to immediately call 911 for help. It’s another shooting in the city that has the community emotional.
“It’s scary. This can’t happen, it’s too close to home,” Whitley said.
Authorities have not yet identified the victim. A medical examiner was on scene by mid-afternoon.
Currently, there are two suspects in custody who may be connected to the shooting, police said. Brooklyn Center police also say this is likely an isolated incident and there is no immediate danger in the surrounding area. Speedway gas station is currently closed.
