Sioux Falls Police were called to a home at 928 North Minnesota Avenue at 9:30 AM Wednesday on a report of a robbery that involved a shooting. The victim in the case was hurt badly enough to warrant a ride to the hospital.

Further statements from the victim put the incident happening between 2:00 PM and 2:30 PM. Two men armed with handguns demanded cash from the man whose name has not been released.

The 23-year old victim got into a skirmish with the would-be robbers before being shot in the left leg. After the gun went off, the two suspects escaped without taking anything.

Two African-American men are presumed to have committed the crime. One of them was 6’2” and slender, while the other was 5’9” and 225 pounds and both spoke with an African accent. Any information regarding this incident should be turned over to Sioux Falls Police or Crime Stoppers.
