CARVER, Minn. — Editor’s note: The video above first aired on KARE 11 on Nov. 25, 2024.

A Kansas City man is being held in the Carver County Jail on assault charges after prosecutors alleged he critically injured a teenage Fleet Farm employee.

The criminal complaint filed Tuesday showed 31-year-old Gerald Hudson was charged with first- and second-degree assault, for the attack that left the 17-year-old employee with a 2- to 3-inch laceration to the back of her neck. Court documents said the alleged assault occurred inside the company’s Carver location just after 2 p.m. Sunday.

According to prosecutors, surveillance video showed Hudson entering the store before walking past the teen and to the end of an aisle. Authorities claimed Hudson looked right and then left before turning around and making a “striking movement” toward the teen, who was then seen on video holding the back of her neck and running from the area.

A witness told police they heard the teen yell, “he just stabbed me,” and saw the suspect, now identified as Hudson, run outside to the parking lot and drive away.

The complaint said Hudson was arrested in Chanhassen and brought in for questioning, where authorities claim he made a number of voluntary statements, including, “I didn’t stab anyone, I didn’t have any guns or anything like that, I just hit someone with a thing.”

The teen, prosecutors said, was taken to HCMC for treatment and her last known condition was critical but stable.

At the time of the filing, prosecutors said a potential weapon had still not been located.

A judge set bail for Hudson on Tuesday and scheduled his next court appearance for Dec. 13.

MINNEAPOLIS — A 23-year-old man is dead after being shot Monday outside a Minneapolis gas station.

The Minneapolis Police Department said the shooting happened just before noon at a Lowry Avenue gas station on the city’s north side. 

Police said their investigation suggests the victim was outside the store when he was approached by another man, who they said pulled out a gun and shot the victim before fleeing from the area. 

MPD said the man who was shot was transported to North Memorial Medical Center, where he died from his injuries. He has not yet been identified.

PINE COUNTY, Minn. — Eastern Minnesota authorities kindly request you come pick up your trailer home if you somehow lost it in rural Pine County.

A post on the Pine County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page Monday said the trailer was dumped near Beroun Crossing Road and Sand Hill Crane Lane, just north of Pine City. Later, an update revealed that the trailer’s owner had been identified, but so far, calls from the office have gone unanswered.

“We have located the owner of this trailer,” the post read. “We have tried to call them and there was no answer, but we did leave a message. We sure hope that they call back before we have to send our reports to the County Attorney for possible charges.”

At this point, it’s unclear what those charges could be, but what is clear, is that someone really didn’t want to deal with this mobile home.

The sheriff’s office asks anyone with information to contact them at 320-629-8380.
