Be careful out there. The Vikings released this statement.
“Following last night’s preseason game, Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Linval Joseph was an innocent bystander to the shooting that took place at the 400 SoundBar in downtown Minneapolis,” the statement read. “Linval suffered a minor injury during the shooting when a stray bullet struck his calf. He was immediately taken to the hospital where he was treated for his injury and released. He is expected to return to his coaches and teammates this week.
“The entire Vikings organization is extremely thankful that Linval was not seriously hurt, and our thoughts are with all of the victims of this shooting. The team will defer any further comment to the Minneapolis Police Department during its ongoing investigation.”
He is very lucky man.
No one expects to get randomly shot when they are just out having a good time, but just be aware of your surroundings, if things look like they are getting too intense, get the hell out of there.
It appears it was a gang related shooting, 9 people were shot, but thankfully everyone will survive.
