ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - St. Paul police say a girl has died and two teens have been injured after officers responded to a report of gunshots.

It happened in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday. Police won’t say if the young people had been shot. A juvenile female was pronounced dead at the scene. An 18-year-old male and 17-year-old female were transported to Regions Hospital.
