No one is in custody, but police believed this was not a random shooting. The identity and age of the victim will be released at a later date by the Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s office.
Police say this has been St. Paul’s deadliest year in at least a quarter century, with Monday’s homicide pushing past 2019’s total. There have also been 214 victims of gun violence this year in the city.
