Gunman Opens Fire At New Hope City Hall After New Cops Get Sworn In

Two police officers who were shot by a gunman inside a suburban Minneapolis city building are expected to recover.

Two newly sworn-in officers and others were shot at Monday night as they left a New Hope City Council meeting. Two officers were hit, and others returned fire and killed the gunman, Hennepin County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Mike Carlson said.

Council members were later escorted to safety. Carlson said authorities are not seeking any other suspects and did not identify the gunman or disclose a possible motive.
