Minneapolis police said Friday that a man who was shot on the city's South Side overnight has died of his injuries, and an earlier homicide victim was identified as a northern Minnesota man.

In the most recent case, officers responded to a report of gunfire in the 2900 block of S. Grand Avenue, near the Midtown Greenway, just before 11 p.m. Thursday and found the 23-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds, according to police and scanner reports.

According to emergency radio transmissions, the man had been shot twice in the chest. A police report said he was sitting in a vehicle when someone approached and "fired several shots into it."

Officers started CPR until paramedics arrived and took the man to HCMC, where he died sometime Friday morning, a police spokeswoman said.

Police spent the next several hours canvassing the area around the Greenway after a witness reported seeing a suspect running from the shooting scene, according to the report. A police dog was later summoned to the scene.

The man's name and age will be released after an autopsy.

News of his death followed an announcement earlier Friday identifying a man who was shot and killed on Lake Street earlier in the week.

Medical examiners say that Lawrence Dean Hart Jr. died of multiple gunshot wounds and deemed his death a homicide. A report said Hart, 28, was a resident of Cass Lake, in northern Minnesota.

Police have disclosed few details about his killing.

The slayings were the city's ninth and 10th of the year. No arrests have been announced in either case.

In a separate incident Thursday night, a 23-year-old man and a 24-year old man, believed to be brothers, were injured in a shooting that occurred in the 3400 block of N. Fremont Avenue, police said. Both are expected to survive.
