Suburban Minneapolis mall reopens after fatal shooting

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — A suburban Minneapolis mall resumed normal business hours Tuesday (Aug. 23, 2022) after a fatal shooting that had earlier locked down the shopping complex. Police responded to the Eden Prairie Center mall on Monday night and found a man dead of what they said was a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The shooting happened in the Scheels sporting goods store, which also sells firearms. Police Chief Matt Sackett says it’s not clear whether the man brought a weapon to Scheels or accessed one of the store’s guns. Sackett says the investigation continues, but the shooting appears to be an isolated incident.
