A doctor in Edina, Minn., was shot in the head during a robbery recently as he was walking fromM Health Fairview Southdale Hospital to his car, according to an article on the Campus Safety magazine.
The hospital was placed in lockdown after the shooting at about 9 p.m. and was lifted just before midnight.
The doctor told police a man tried to rob him in the parking ramp on the second floor before shooting him.
Last year, hospital employees said they asked administrators to provide better protection in parking areas but that their requests were denied, according to an article on The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Nurses said they had to face “unsafe and mindboggling obstacles” to get to and from their vehicles and that there were hourlong waits between shuttles and security escorts. As a result, some resorted to hiring taxis to get from the hospital to their cars, the article said.
