EMS subsequently rushed the child to a local hospital, where he later died, Parten said.<\/p>\n<p>Citing a preliminary investigation, Parten noted that the child and another juvenile family member were apparently alone in the apartment when the shooting took place. He added that a forensic team from the MPD collected evidence from the scene and that investigators were still sorting out precisely what happened.<\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWe have two juveniles alone in a residence with access to a gun and that is always a bad recipe, always,\u201d Parten said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>He added that since the investigation is still in its early stages, the MPD will only be releasing limited information to preserve the integrity of the investigation. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner will be the entity that identifies the victim and his cause of death.<\/p>\n<p>No suspects have been arrested, WCCO <a href=\"https:\/\/minnesota.cbslocal.com\/2022\/04\/16\/police-10-year-old-boy-killed-in-shooting-inside-downtown-minneapolis-apartment\/\">reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Parten said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span> In this case, we\u2019re going to do what we always do: collect the evidence, figure out the facts, and then follow those facts wherever they take us. When those facts are very clear, then charges will be considered based on whatever those facts equal to a possible crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>The public information officer said deaths always carry impactful circumstances, but deaths of children have an overwhelming effect on the first responders who arrive at a scene, the doctors who care for a dying child,\u00a0 the community who learns of such tragedies, and above all else \u2013 on the victim\u2019s family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, hours after the shooting, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MayorFrey\/status\/1515336876235923465\">released<\/a> a statement on Twitter calling for the community to \u201caddress gun safety &#038; gun control laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The news of this morning is a tragedy.
