Londregan’s prosecution controversy. Journalists receive settlement for riot injuries Minnesota Today

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says he hasn’t received a formal request to assist or take over the prosecution of Trooper Ryan Londregan, who is charged in the 2023 death of Ricky Cobb II as he fled a traffic stop. Ellison says the case would present a logistical challenge because his office also represents the Minnesota State Patrol in civil matters.

And two journalists have reached a $1.2 million settlement with the State Patrol for injuries sustained during the riots after George Floyd’s murder.
