I was a bit shocked that it was broad day light and at a very public place. I realize this stuff happens and maybe the proliferation of video cameras will catch more of it.

I like to think that this violence is not the norm there now -- just some bad apples. But I haven't been there in many years to know.

It's quite bad. I live downtown and the things I see on a daily basis are amazing. Definitely not a place for everyone.

There are certain areas that you do not want to be at certain times... but you must be on your guard always.

Sad to hear.

Really, any major metro area has parts one would best avoid, but I always loved downtown Minneapolis.

No coincidence this happens to be the intersection of many bus lines and the light trail.
