At approximately 1:56 a.m. on Sunday, August 3, The Fargo Police Department was dispatched to the 50 block of Broadway for a report of shots fired.
Upon arrival, officers located three adult victims and immediately began rendering aid while working to secure the scene. Due to the size of the crowd and the fact that individuals were becoming unruly, mutual aid was requested from surrounding law enforcement agencies to assist with scene control and ensure public safety.
The three adult victims sustained gunshot wounds during the incident:
• One victim was pronounced dead
• A second victim remains in critical condition
• A third victim sustained non-life threatening injuries
The name of the deceased will be released 24 hours after next of kin notification.
The Fargo Police Department would like to thank the Moorhead Police Department, West Fargo Police Department, Cass County Sheriff's Office and Clay County Sheriff's Office for their assistance during this incident.
