neighborhood. Three people were killed in what was an apparent robbery gone
wrong at the Seward Market/Halal Meat store on Franklin Ave. The Star Tribune
has more of the story here:

I was coming back from a late night meeting through Seward when my friend and I
saw a crowd had gathered on the side street to the business. It was well past
11:00PM but many felt the need to come together to learn what they could from
police, and support each other in their grief.
I know this will have a strong impact in our neighborhood with our large Somali
population and how closely connected they are as a community. I wish peace to
all of you in that community who have been personally affected by this news.
