Bemidji Gunfight Leaves Two in Custody | Fargo News

In Bemidji, a chaotic night of gunfire between two men has spiraled into serious charges. Vincent Parkhurst Jr., 27, faces second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon after allegedly firing back during a shootout with 20-year-old Terrance Jones Jr. at Kestrel Pines apartments. Parkhurst, initially claiming he was just walking by, was later caught on hotel surveillance ditching a loaded .22 revolver — five live rounds still inside — after being shot in the shoulder. He later admitted to grabbing his gun after a relative said someone pointed a weapon at them. Jones, already in custody on separate charges including being a felon in possession of a firearm, is also accused of shooting first. Both men have criminal histories, making this a volatile, high-stakes standoff with serious legal consequences looming.
