Descripción

Wednesday, May 27 — Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara is out. An investigation started last year with an accusation that O'Hara had sexually intimate relationships with city employees that worked under his authority. Those allegations were not founded, but Frey says O'Hara broke his trust. Plus, the Minneapolis City Council strongly responds to O'Hara's resignation, criticizing the mayor in the process. A man was shot multiple times while attending a prayer service for Eid Al Adha, an Islamic Holiday. It happened at Canterbury Park in Shakopee. And one the of the 15 people charged by the DOJ last week in Minnesota's fraud crisis was in court today. A judge ruled Muhammad Omar will be detained throughout trial because of flight risk.
