A man opened fire into a crowd of people Wednesday night, hitting a woman holding her 2-year-old granddaughter and the woman's 18-year-old male relative in St. Paul's Dayton's Bluff neighborhood, police said today.

The 49-year-old woman and the man were each shot in the leg and had non-life-threatening injuries, said Peter Panos, police spokesman.

A fight between juveniles had broken out in the street near the woman's home in the 700 block of Conway Street about 6:30 p.m., Panos said. The woman went to get her granddaughter from the yard, he said.

"As she started to walk back to the house, she heard the shots and was hit," Panos said. "She went to the ground and covered the child until the shots stopped."

The child wasn't hurt, Panos said.

I assume that, if it were formatted for readability, there would be some information there?

Fine upstanding law abiding citizens have a hard time getting permits in Ramsey county.
