Police have filed a single felony count against a man who allegedly discharged a gun inside a Target store in Fridley.
Seth Allan Millner, 28, was charged with possession of a firearm by an ineligible person, owing to his prior criminal record.
According to the criminal complaint, Millner was paying for some items at the Target store when a gun he had in his waistband slipped down his leg and went off. A bullet bounced off the floor and hit the ceiling. No one was hurt.
He fled the store but was arrested in St. Paul a few days later on other charges.
An acquaintance recognized Millner in media reports and identified him for police. Police say Millner told them the handgun "just went off."
