3 men hurt in fight, but not by gunfire, as originally reported Star Tribune August 10, 2005 ASSAULT0810 Three men who Minneapolis police initially believed were shot early Wednesday actually were wounded in a fight but not by gunfire.
Police found the three victims in the back yard of a duplex in the 2700 block of Pillsbury Av. S. about 12:30 a.m. The officers had been responding to a call of shots being fired, and at least two of the victims had superficial head wounds, said department spokesman Ron Reier. When the victims were taken to the hospital, it was determined their wounds were caused during a struggle in which a gun had been fired, Reier said. None of the injuries are life threatening. An 18-year-old was arrested. Police are investigating the reason for the fight, and drugs were recovered at the scene, Reier said.
