St. Paul police are investigating a shooting that killed a woman in the Dayton’s Bluff area.
Officers responded about 4:15 p.m. Friday to an apartment building in the 500 block of Broadway Street, which is near downtown and close to Interstate 94 and East Seventh Street.
Inside an apartment, officers found a woman who had been shot in the head, police said in a statement. Preliminary evidence indicated the woman was shot Thursday. Police recovered a firearm at the scene.
As of Friday night, police said an active search is underway for the suspect.
The homicide was the 14th of the year in St. Paul.
There were 32 homicides in the city as of this time last year. The police department counts 29 homicides because it doesn’t include a shooting by officers, in which they were legally cleared, and two cases in St. Paul that were investigated by Metro Transit police.
