The Star Tribune headline states, “Live: Suspect identified in Minneapolis shooting that left 3 dead and 6 injured,” focusing on the suspect’s identification and ongoing investigation processes. Conversely, CNN’s coverage titled “2 dead and multiple people — including police officers — injured in mass shooting at downtown Minneapolis apartment building,” emphasizes the immediate impact of the shooting, noting both casualties and injuries involving police.
