St. Cloud police investigate shooting death of 24-year-old
St. Cloud police are investigating the shooting death of a man in an alley following a fight at a party.
Police said officers responded to a report of a person with a gun around 3:30 a.m. Saturday, then got a call that a person had been shot in a vehicle in the alley. Officers found the 24-year-old St. Cloud man in the driver's seat and tried to resuscitate him, but he died at a hospital.
Investigators determined that there had been a fight outside a nearby apartment where a party was taking place, and that it led to the shooting. Several people fled when shots were fired.
