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.

This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi. Music by Gary Meister.
