Members of the Minnesota National Guard were fired upon during a drive-by shooting in Minneapolis early Sunday morning, with two guardsmen suffering minor injuries.
During the operation, members of their brigade came under fire early Sunday morning. Police say a light-colored SUV shot at a security team at Broadway and Penn avenues.
“One of the bullets penetrated the Humvee with soldiers inside of it,” Cmdr. Sgt. Maj. Robert Harris said.
They say they’re aware of the danger during this tumultuous time, and the mission for these Minnesotans continues.
“All we can do is kind of stand strong while we’re here,” Haynes said. “It is surreal because I don’t expect to get shot at in uniform protecting my streets, on my streets that I come home to.”
