The teens were riding scooters, stopped near the Mount Airy Community Center near Arch and Mount Airy streets and heard gunshots, which led people to scatter, said St. Paul Police Sgt. Toy Vixayvong.

Officers responded about 10:35 p.m. to multiple 911 callers reporting shots fired and that someone had been shot.

Police found one of the teens in the immediate area and the other injured teen a few blocks away in the 100 block of Arch Street. St. Paul fire department medics took them to Regions Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to Vixayvong.

The victims, who are friends, weren’t aware who shot them, Vixayvong said.

No one was immediately under arrest. The St. Paul Police Department’s Non-Fatal Shooting Unit is investigating.
