Twitter One person is dead and at least 11 have been injured in a mass shooting in the US city of Minneapolis, the same area rocked by violence over the death of George Floyd. The area is about 5 kilometres west of the Minneapolis commercial area and neighbourhood hit by rioting in the wake of George Floyd's May 25 death after being arrested by Minneapolis police.
