Jason Jennette was walking to his University of Minnesota fraternity house just before midnight last month when gunfire rang out in the Dinkytown area, sending him, his friend and other bystanders fleeing for cover.
After scrambling out of sight, Jennette realized a shot had grazed his leg. He said his friend had bullet fragments lodged in his calf. Police say the shooting erupted when a man fired at a woman in a domestic dispute, striking her and four others in the busy Minneapolis neighborhood.
"I was just really concerned … that somebody would shoot into a crowd of people like that in an area I tend to walk through a lot," said Jennette, a U junior studying applied economics. "There was a time I walked everywhere alone … I had never even imagined being robbed or threatened or shot at."
