ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) The Ramsey County Medical Examiner s Office has ruled a shooting that left two men dead outside a FedEx facility in Mahtomedi last month was a murder-suicide.
David Peterson killed Todd “Jimmy” Wilemon and then shot himself following an argument Feb. 1, according to officials.
Washington County sheriff s deputies responding the the FedEx parking lot found Wilemon, a 58-year-old Fulton, Mississippi man, was already dead. Peterson, a 49-year-old man from Blaine, was taken to Regions Hospital in St. Paul where he died.
Investigators say the two men were truck drivers and that Wilemon was involved in a relationship with Peterson s wife.

Lois Ireland Zwettler, artist whose paintings captured Wisconsin, dies of COVID at 92 March 1, 2021 6:32pm Text size Copy shortlink:
Her paintings had a sense of authenticity, art critics said, capturing the farmlands and lives of people with an empathy that comes from being one of them, and an appreciation of color and an eye for detail that seemed almost intuitive.
Lois Ireland Zwettler was largely self-taught and painted her corner of the world central Wisconsin beginning in the late 1940s. Her work drew the attention of one of the nation s most celebrated American scene painters, John Steuart Curry, who was the artist-in-residence at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.

St. Louis Park leaders may amend or repeal an ordinance banning targeted residential protests, after officials discovered the restriction has been on the books for nearly half a century.
City Manager Tom Harmening told the City Council at a study session this week that St. Louis Park has had a targeted protest ban since 1976 an ordinance he said he was unaware of until the city attorney recently discovered it. Harmening said the council can decide whether to keep the policy, update it or refresh it.
A decision to change the ordinance or remove it altogether would be in stark contrast to a growing number of cities that have recently passed resolutions banning residential protests.
