Assault
Two people were hurt after an assault in St. Cloud last Tuesday. The St. Cloud Police Department says they were called at around 4:00 p.m. on September 22nd about an assault in the 600 block of 15th Street South. Once they arrived, officers learned that a boy had been assaulted by about 10 to 12 other boys. Officers also discovered that an adult woman who tried to stop the assault had been hit with a bat by an unknown male. Both the boy and woman victims sustained minor injuries. The Criminal Investigation Unit (CIU) discovered the identities of two boy suspects, located them, and took them into custody. The two suspects are being held in a secure detention facility pending charges of felony assault in relation to the incident. The St. Cloud Police Department says the assault investigation is ongoing and additional arrests are expected as more suspects are identified.
Gas Prices
Average gasoline prices fell in slightly more than half of the states over the last week, with the Great Lakes region seeing the largest declines after a major refinery successfully restarted. Gas Buddy says diesel in the Great Lakes should also begin easing. With oil holding below $100 per barrel, many Americans may see modest declines ahead for gasoline and slight drops for diesel. Average gasoline prices in Minnesota have fallen 7.0 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $4.32 per gallon. The national average price of gasoline has fallen 1.6 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $4.42 per gallon. The national price of diesel has decreased 4.1 cents compared to a week ago and stands at $6.44 per gallon.
Law Enforcement Shoot And Kill Man In Ottertail County
Law enforcement shot and killed a man Friday evening amid a standoff in northwestern Minnesota, according to the Otter Tail County Sheriff's Office. Deputies were first called around 5:47 p.m. to a residence on Twin Lakes Road in Battle Lake, about 20 miles east of Fergus Falls, after a 911 caller said a man had barricaded their relative inside the home, then punched the caller "with the butt of a shotgun and forced them into their vehicle." SWAT teams from the Otter Tail and Douglas county sheriff's offices, as well as the Red River Valley SWAT team were soon dispatched, authorities say, as deputies worked to "communicate and negotiate" with him. "According to preliminary information, the man later exited the residence and pointed a firearm at law enforcement. A law enforcement officer discharged their firearm, striking the man," the sheriff's office said. "Officers and medical personnel rendered aid; however, the man was pronounced deceased at the scene." Authorities say no one else was hurt, and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is now leading the investigation.Upcoming Local Events & KEYL/KXDL Events
