Child shot in Minneapolis, 3rd young victim in recent weeks
A young girl is in critical condition after the car she was riding in was apparently caught in a shootout in north Minneapolis Monday night. Activist K.G. Wilson identified the girl as his granddaughter, Aniya Allen, his son's 6-year-old daughter. Wilson’s family told him they'd stopped at a McDonald’s on the way home near 36th and Penn avenues when the car was caught in the crossfire of a shootout around 11 p.m.
