RICHFIELD, Minn. (FOX 9) - Multiple police agencies responded to reports of shots fired outside Richfield High School Friday night during the homecoming football game against Bloomington Kennedy.
During the 4th quarter of the game near the 11:15 mark, multiple shots could be heard that sent players and fans running from the field and stands.
Richfield Police said an 18-year-old and a 21-year-old male suffered from non-life threatening gunshot wounds. The 18-year-old was transported to the hospital.
A school staff member told police that school officials turned away a number of people who appeared to be waiting for the game to end by the northeast gate of the stadium where the shots rang out.
The shooting is under investigation. Police say they do not have a suspect at this time and no arrests have been made.
Richfield police announced Sunday that the suspected shooter, a 15-year-old boy who is a current student at Richfield High School, was arrested late Saturday night in Richfield.
Police also arrested a 16-year-old boy who is accused of "instigating the altercation." He is a former Richfield High School student and was arrested Saturday morning in Edina.
