A 24-year-old Richmond man was taken into custody in connection with the gunfire, said police Lt. Lori Curran.

The shoes were being offered on Amazon.com for anywhere between $600 to $975! Amazing amount of money to spend on any pair of shoes.

Have you heard of this new extreme sport yet? If you have, do you know that Red Bull Crashed Ice is coming to St. Paul, MN this weekend?! The extreme sport began about 10 years ago when an Austrian man skated down a bobsled course. It has since turned into a worldwide competition.

On December 13, almost 200 athletes took to the ice at Saint Paul’s Xcel Energy Center to battle it out for a spot in the first Red Bull Crashed Ice World Championship 2012. The competition starts Thursday with the main event on Saturday night, where the crowd is expected to be well into the thousands. The competitors consist of 100 skaters from Europe and 100 from the U.S., many of which are from Minnesota.

Starting Thursday January 12, two hundred or so fearless athletes will take to a quarter-mile downhill ice track that descends 1,400 feet towards the Mississippi River. The St. Paul Cathedral will serve as the start line where four racers will fearlessly plunge down the ice track at speeds up to 40 mph. The bobsled-like track is constructed with hairpin turns, jumps, twists, inclines and steep drops.

Redbull never fails to amaze and this event should be pretty epic and a must see for all you thrill seekers out there!
