It happened around 8 p.m. on the 1000 block of Suburban Ave., a neighborhood east of downtown near Dayton's Bluff.

Following a number of calls reporting gunshots in the area, the victim was found unresponsive on the street and subsequently pronounced dead at the scene, St. Paul Police spokesman said at a press conference early Saturday morning.

This is St. Paul's 12th homicide so far this year.
