Storms spawned a large twister on the Minnesota-South Dakota border. Heavy rains from the storms caused localized flooding as well.
It was also a weekend of mourning in the Twin Cities with funeral services for Melissa and Mark Hortman. After a viewing at the Minnesota Capitol on Saturday, friends, family members and dignitaries gathered Saturday for a funeral at the Basilica of St. Mary. The former DFL House Speaker and her husband were remembered for their service to the state, their sense of humor and their love of community. Gov. Tim Walz gave one of the remembrances of the Hortmans, calling Melissa Hortman the most consequential speaker of the House in Minnesota history.
A man is in custody following a standoff with police in Rochester. Police say the incident started as a domestic disturbance late Saturday. The man allegedly had a knife and fled the scene before police arrived. Early Sunday, during a traffic stop, police say the suspect emerged from a vehicle with a rifle and a police officer fired a gun. The man was not injured, but fled into a residence and — he finally surrendered more than four hours later.
Stillwater-native Denis McDonough, a former White House insider, will teach at St. John’s University and the College of St. Benedict next school year.
