17-year-old Minneapolis girl dies days after being shot several times
MINNEAPOLIS — A 17-year-old girl who was shot earlier this month in a north Minneapolis parking lot has died from her injuries.

Minneapolis police say officers found Warren-Loyd injured inside a parked vehicle. She was taken to North Memorial Health in Robbinsdale, where a 30-year-old man also showed up with gunshot wounds believed to be from the same shooting. He is expected to survive.
Warren-Loyd was pronounced dead on Friday evening. Police say they've made no arrests and are still investigating the shooting and any possible connection between the victims.
