One person is dead after a violent weekend in Minneapolis, with a total of seven people shot in an eight-hour span.

At about 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Minneapolis and Park Police officers responded to a double shooting at Webber Park in the Webber-Camden neighborhood. The victims were two men, one of whom is in critical condition after suffering a gunshot wound to the torso. The other victim is in fair condition.

About three hours later, police say a woman was killed in a parking ramp at 9th Street and LaSalle Avenue. A man, who had also been shot, was found about a block away. Investigators say the gunman took off before officers arrived, but they don’t believe the public is in danger.
