US Bank executive Terry Dolan believed to be dead following plane crash near Minneapolis

A top US Bank executive is believed to be dead after a small plane registered in his name crashed into a home near Minneapolis on Saturday.
The unidentified pilot was killed in the crash and no other injuries were reported, authorities said.
The Hennepein County Medical Examiner hasn’t confirmed the identity of the sole victim, but many believe that US Bancorp’s Vice Chair and Chief Administration Officer Terry Dolan was killed in the crash — including his coworkers.
“We are aware that the plane that crashed in Brooklyn Park on Saturday afternoon was registered to Terry Dolan, our vice chair and chief administration officer. At this time, the medical examiner’s office has not been able to confirm whether he was on board, but we believe he was,” US Bancorp wrote in a statement.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with him, his family and friends, and anyone who may have been affected by yesterday’s tragic incident.”
Dolan, 63, became the company’s vice chair in 2023. He was in charge of marketing and analytics at the company, among other operations.
Beyond Bancorp, he was an active philanthropist and served on the Killebrew Thompson Memorial’s board of directors as well as at top cultural institutes like the Minnesota Opera and Artspace. He also served on the boards of Catholic Charities and The Minneapolis Foundation.
On Saturday, Dolan’s plane crashed into a house around noon in Brooklyn Park, Minn. The home burst into flames, but miraculously, no one inside the house was injured.
The plane originally departed from the Des Moines International Airport in Iowa that morning. It was just 10 minutes away from landing at the Anoka County-Blaine Airport in Minneapolis when it crashed into the suburban neighborhood.
The medical examiner’s office is expected to release the identity of the killed pilot once the investigation is concluded. Crews started early on Sunday recovering the wreckage and documenting the accident site.
A preliminary report could take up to two weeks to finalize, Timothy Sorensen, a National Transportation Safety Board senior aviation accident investigator, told the Minnesota Star Tribune.

Man fatally shoots his toddler daughter and then himself in Minneapolis home, police say

A man fatally shot his 2-year-old daughter and then himself in a Minneapolis home overnight, officials said Monday.
Minneapolis police said officers went to the home in the 2900 block of Colfax Avenue N. about 12:20 a.m. Monday and found the man and his daughter dead from gunshot wounds.
The girl’s mother was in the home and not physically harmed, police said.
“This is an unimaginable, heartbreaking tragedy,” read a statement from Police Chief Brian O’Hara. “Our hearts are with the child’s mother as she faces an overwhelming loss, and with the officers and investigators who responded to such a devastating scene.”
Officials haven’t released the identities of the father or the girl.
There have been 24 homicides in Minneapolis this year, according to a Minnesota Star Tribune database. That compares to 33 at this time last year.

Minnesota weather: Breezy and cooler temperatures to start off this week

MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – A cool and breezy start to this week with dry and warm conditions Tuesday and Wednesday in Minnesota.
Sunday, Monday forecast
What to expect:
Temperatures will stay in the 60s for most of the state Sunday and Monday with only a select few reaching the 70 degree mark Sunday.
Showers look likely up north throughout the day with the rest of the state dealing with a breeze. Smoke from wildfires in Canada is back in the area Sunday, leading to air quality alerts for the whole state.
The haze will likely stick around through Monday. Temperatures stay cool with a northwest breeze for Monday. Watch for a few showers in western Wisconsin and a few north of Interstate 94 as well.
The rest of the week outlook
What’s next:
Pleasant, sunny, and warmer temperatures are back for Tuesday and Wednesday. Both days look to feature high temperatures reaching close to or even above 80 degrees.
A warm front approaches Wednesday night and sets up a frontal boundary for the rest of the work week in southern Minnesota. This will lead to a few chances of showers and thunderstorms from Wednesday night through Friday.

Banks: Can we keep the peace in Minneapolis?
Context: Sanctuary city policies are motivated in part by the understanding that the federal government has its own immigration enforcement capabilities and does not need permission or cooperation to perform them. Such policies also are motivated by the notion that immigration enforcement is — perhaps depending on the administration, or perhaps inherently — unjust. It cannot be seen as a net positive for society’s governing divisions to subvert one another’s missions. In any case, Minneapolis police are responsible for keeping the peace in the city.
Fact: Those at the scene and others in the aftermath criticized the militarized nature of the operation. The use of masks by some of the law enforcement agents was a particular trigger.
Context: We’re seeing more of that masking — not just helmets and shields, but concealments — especially among federal agents. It diminishes accountability and enhances the intimidation factor, whether on purpose or not. Todd Lyons, the acting ICE director, belittled that concern when he said “is that the issue here, that we’re just upset about the masks? Or is anyone upset about the fact that ICE officers’ families were labeled terrorists?”
Those in law enforcement have hard jobs. We ask them to deal with the worst elements of society, but also to be better than those elements at all times. We demand this professionalism regardless of circumstance, regardless of political culture and regardless of their own psychological wounds. These are reasonable expectations. They’re necessary for the consent of the governed.
Fact: Some officials criticized the excess of the raid. O’Hara and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called it tone-deaf. Frey said community members had “understandable fear. I had the same concern myself.” On Thursday, the Minneapolis City Council ordered a review of the city’s involvement.
Context: All well and good, especially the review, but this is an election year in Minneapolis, and questions of public safety and justice are again where battle lines are being drawn, even though there are other matters, including the evolution of the tax base, that are equally important to the city’s future. Obviously, law enforcement raids like Tuesday’s won’t be announced in advance. Current federal policies will only add to instability. I don’t think the mayor is caught off-guard by the community reactions, but if he wants a sensible public safety milieu to prevail in November, he needs to be seen as not running behind.
