Woman seriously injured after being hit by 2 cars in Minneapolis


A woman is suffering from serious injuries after being hit by two vehicles Tuesday night in Minneapolis.

Minneapolis police say that at around 6:26 p.m., officers responded to Fifth Street South and Fourth Avenue South for a 56-year-old woman who was hit by a vehicle. She was brought to the hospital with possible life-threatening injuries.

Officials say that the woman was walking across the intersection in the crosswalk when a vehicle turning left hit her. A second vehicle going through the intersection also hit the woman who was down in the street.

The drivers of both cars pulled over and cooperated with police, according to authorities.

As Minneapolis Park Board changes registration for youth sports, pre-existing teams are out

As Minneapolis Park Board changes registration for youth sports, pre-existing teams are out


Last year, Park Board youth leagues had 806 teams and a total of more than 10,200 athletes. About 10% of the teams were pre-formed, with about 925 participants.

The Park Board is rolling out central registration this spring for baseball, softball, track and field, and flag football because those sports have the fewest pre-formed teams. Seeing how central registration plays out may inform changes later.

Jack Bartsh, the Park Board’s director of athletics, aquatics, ice arenas and golf, said he was optimistic that central registration would improve participation in park leagues over time, but he acknowledged there would be growing pains in the near term.

“I’m willing to go to great lengths to try to get the kids participating and to get the coaches involved,” Bartsh said, promising to go door-to-door at Little Earth to help sign up kids if necessary.

“We’ll get a better idea of how things look after we run through this first season. And if we have to make adjustments, we’ll make adjustments. But I do believe we’re heading in the right direction.”

St. Paul Parks and Recreation spokeswoman Clare Cloyd said teams formed by outside organizations, such as the West Side Boosters, are welcome in St. Paul.

A 23-year-old Minneapolis man pleaded guilty on Friday to second-degree murder in connection to a deadly Edina shooting in December 2023.

According to court documents, Kayvon Madison and about a dozen other people were celebrating a birthday at a restaurant in a strip mall on West 70th Street in Edina on the evening of Dec. 2, 2023.

 The shooting happened in the parking lot as some of the celebrants were leaving.  

Surveillance video allegedly shows Madison, the victim — identified as 23-year-old Jamal Roberson — and three other men leaving the restaurant and taking pictures in the parking lot. Witnesses said after the pictures, Madison prompted an argument with Roberson by making comments about Roberson’s deceased friend.  

The video allegedly showed Madison shooting Roberson five times. Roberson died at the scene, according to the complaint.
