St. Paul police are investigating a shooting death on Wednesday, the first homicide by gunfire in the city this year.

The incident happened on the West Side in the 600 block of Stryker Avenue, according to police. The department plans to release additional information later Wednesday.

The homicide is the fourth of the year in St. Paul. The previous three were stabbings.

There were nine homicides at this time in the city last year, including a shooting by officers that prosecutors recently found to be justified under state law.
