2 teens arrested for killing 15-year-old girl in Minneapolis 00:26

MINNEAPOLIS — Two teens have been arrested in connection to the deadly shooting of a 15-year-old girl over the weekend in north Minneapolis.

The shooting happened just before 2 p.m. Saturday near 34th and Logan Avenue North. Officers arrived at the scene and found the girl, identified as Tyra Terry, with a life-threatening gunshot wound. She was transported to North Memorial Hospital, where she later died.

A newly released police report says an "unknown person" ran out of the residence before officers arrived.

Two boys — a 16-year-old and a 17-year-old — are now facing charges for helping someone avoid arrest.

The suspected shooter has yet to be arrested.

Terry's older sister, Shaquila Brown, described her as the "sweetest person in the whole world."

"I'm going to miss her laugh, I'm going to miss her coming into my room," said Brown. "I'm going to miss everything, I'm miss her being there."

The shooting remains under investigation.

MN loves criminals. Bloody Mary Moriarty has so much blood on her hands. Timmy, how's that red flag law working?

I swear it seems younger and younger people are dying of crime. It's crazy because if a child (under 18) dies because of illness like cancer people are so angry at God but a child killing a child who do you blame. because trust me if someone's child is facing time for killing someone that parent is angry not at the child for taking a life but instead the court system for sentencing them for murder. please help these children stop crime and taking lives instead teach them how to survive and build there communities up and businesses up to better themselves and to be proud of their communities. It's not a race thing It's a generation thing.
