A late-morning quarrel in Minneapolis escalated into gunfire on September 15, 2025, leaving five men wounded and 46-year-old Adam John Peterson among the victims. The shooting occurred near East Lake Street and Stevens Avenue South, by the Interstate 35W off-ramp and the Midtown Greenway transit bus tower station. Officers found a chaotic scene; gunfire is reported to have started near the greenway and continued onto a nearby walkway.

Peterson suffered life-threatening wounds and was taken to Hennepin Healthcare. Three other men were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries and a fifth man received minor treatment at the scene. After five days in the hospital, Adam John Peterson died of his injuries on September 20, 2025. Minneapolis police say there may have been multiple gunmen and that the motive appears to have been a dispute that turned violent. No arrests have been announced, and investigators have not ruled out a possible link to a separate mass shooting later that same day at a nearby homeless encampment.

Did anyone in the Midtown Greenway or East Lake Street area see what happened that morning or have information about the people involved?
