Rice County Sheriff's Office

The deadly incident occurred less than six hours after a Rochester man was killed in a motorcycle crash.

Officials say the victim was a 14-year-old boy who was a passenger in one of the two pickups that collided Tuesday evening.

Sanderson was charged with four felony drugs counts, two possession and two sale and a count of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Officials say he fired multiple rounds from his gun during the stand-off.

The Toward Zero Deaths Southeast Minnesota Safe Roads Coalition says these crashes are preventable!

Captain Budin says, "The crash is considered open/active and no further details on the crash will be released at this time."

Faribault Police Department Night to Unite block parties listed here. I could find no specific information for Rice County Sheriff's Office. In the past the Sheriff's Department did have some events.

Sheriff Thomas stated, "A 2019 study in Colorado found that for every dollar of tax revenue received from recreational cannabis sales, $4.50 was spent on addressing the adverse impacts of cannabis."

The Faribault Police Chief commented, "I am grateful for the quick action of the citizen who intervened, placing themselves at risk and protecting the store clerks from the assaultive suspect. While we always encourage citizens to act with caution when witnessing a crime of violence, we are incredibly appreciative when individuals go above and beyond in their civic duty."

We covered several other topics including progress on construction of the new Public Safety Center on the north edge of Faribault.
