ST. PAUL, Minn. (KMSP) - St. Paul police are investigating a deadly double shooting outside the Midway Motel on Tuesday night.

Police said two men were shot and killed in the motel parking lot at 901 N. Snelling Avenue. Police were called around 9:30 p.m., but both victims were pronounced dead after paramedics attempted to revive them. No arrests had been made by Wednesday morning, but police do not believe the shootings were random.
