Alfredo Solis Fernando Alvarez (Hennepin Co. Jail)
RICHFIELD, Minn. – Authorities say they have not established a motive in a shooting outside a suburban Minneapolis school that left one student dead and another critically injured.
The students were shot Tuesday outside South Education Center in Richfield south of Minneapolis. Police arrested two suspects at separate locations in Minneapolis. They have been identified as Alfredo Solis and Fernando Alvarez, both students at the school.
Richfield Police Chief Jay Henthorne said five people, all students, were involved in the “horrific, tragic incident,” but didn’t give further details other than to say it was a disagreement among “acquaintances.” A 15-year-old student was killed and a 17-year-old student was critically injured. A third student was hurt but Henthorne said he wasn’t sure whether the injuries were from gunfire.
