Some members of the Minnesota National Guard came under gunfire in Minneapolis on April 18 in the midst of the riots, looting, and protests that followed last week’s shooting death of Daunte Wright, officials said. Two suffered minor injuries.

A National Guard and Minneapolis police “neighborhood security team was fired upon early Sunday morning in a drive-by shooting near Penn Avenue and Broadway in Minneapolis,” the Guard wrote in a tweet.
