Law enforcement officers shot and killed a man Thursday afternoon in Minneapolis' Uptown neighborhood, sources said.
The U.S. Marshals Service said members of its task force were trying to arrest the man, suspected of being a felon in possession of a gun. The suspect, who was in a parked car, "failed to comply and produced a handgun, resulting in task force members firing upon the subject," the agency said in its statement.
He was declared dead at the scene by medics, the statement continued. A woman in the car injured by shattered glass.
The shooting occurred in a parking ramp at W. Lake Street and S. Fremont Avenue. Minneapolis police were not involved.
