Brooklyn Center Commander Garett Flesland said that police responded quickly to the shots fired at the Foot Locker, citing a shoe sale that was going on as the catalyst for the altercation. Two people were injured. “They were conscious and talking with the officers, paramedics. The word I have is non-life threatening at this point,” Flesland said.

Police do not have any suspects in custody, but they did say that they believed this to be an isolated incident.
“It makes you sad for the people, and the mentality and the mind frame that we have to kill somebody, that nobody’s life is valued anymore. It’s sad,” Favorite said.
