Friday, October 10th — Three new measles cases are confirmed in Dakota County, bringing Minnesota’s total to 20. Health officials say the outbreak is tied to unvaccinated individuals, and we hear from the state’s director of infectious disease. Then, a woman is brutally attacked at a St. Paul train platform — with witnesses nearby — and now the male suspect is linked to another violent assault.
Plus, Minnesota faces a federal ultimatum over transgender athlete policies, and hundreds of millions in school funding could be at risk. And finally, there’s a new polar bear at Como Zoo — meet Astra, a 700-pound addition.
Also: a ceasefire takes hold in Gaza, a wildfire spreads near Crosby-Manitou State Park, Gophers football prepares for homecoming, and the Savannah Bananas are bringing their baseball circus to Target Field next summer.
