Crews digging near an intersection in Duluth in preparation for future road construction have come across 55 coffins — all of them believed to be empty — as well as a single bone that appeared to be human. St. Louis County Public Works employees were looking for any evidence of human remains as part of a planned archaeological exploratory dig last week in advance of a scheduled project to widen Rice Lake Road north of Arrowhead Road in 2020. http://www.startribune.com/public-works-crews-unearth-empty-coffins-bone-at-duluth-s...
Suicide has always been a hard subject for most to talk about. Instead of avoiding the conversation, Red Lake has put their energy into bringing awareness to prevention. "We've been doing this for 11 years, like, today is the 11th year, and we try and help out people that have a crisis with suicide attempts or any issues that come up. We try to help them with hotel rooms or gas money to go where they need to go," says Bill May, one of the founders of the Red Lake Ride Against Suicide Prevention...

WASHINGTON — Snubbing Canada, the Trump administration reached a preliminary deal Monday with Mexico to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement — a move that raised legal questions and threatened to disrupt the operations of companies that do business across the three-country trade bloc. President Donald Trump suggested that he might leave Canada, America's No. 2 trading partner, out of a new agreement. He said he wanted to call the revamped trade pact "the United States-Mexico Trade Agreement" because, in his view, NAFTA had ear...

Mike Priefer is a veteran special teams coach in his eighth season with the Vikings, and he’s nearing the end of perhaps his most challenging preseason in Minnesota. Kicker Daniel Carlson, punter Ryan Quigley and the Vikings reserves on punt and kickoff coverage didn’t play well last week against the Seahawks. Younger players have generally played better at this point in the preseason, Priefer said, leading to him putting the onus on himself to coach better while also sending a message to his specialists ahead of Thursday night’s exhib...

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Iran warned Monday that re-imposed U.S. sanctions would cripple its economy and plunge the volatile Middle East deeper into crisis as it urged the United Nations' highest court to suspend the Trump administration's economic pressure on Tehran. In a written statement about the case at the International Court of Justice, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called Iran's claims "meritless" and defended the sanctions as a way of keeping Americans safe. http://www.startribune.com/iran-goes-to-un-s-highest...
U.S. Sens. Amy Klobuchar and John McCain worked side by side on Capitol Hill for years, but it was on their international trips that she got the best sense of what mattered most to him. Reverence for history. Parity for women. Respect for country. And belief in the importance of fighting for a cause larger than yourself. http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-colleagues-pay-tribute-to-mccain/491758231/...

BEMIDJI—Beltrami County residents have been targeted by a scam in which property owners are told to pay $89 in order to receive a copy of their deed. According to a news release from the Beltrami County Sheriff's Office, some taxpayers have received a mailing for the fee. The release called the mailing a "returning" scam and urged county residents to research types of scams via the FBI, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety or the Better Business Bureau. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/4491095-deed-scam-returns-beltra...
It's the standard Washington protocol - a member of Congress dies, and the flags over official buildings are flown at half-staff. That's what happened when John McCain died Saturday. But first thing Monday morning, the flag over the White House was back at full-staff, and a barrage of bitter criticism soon followed, with detractors - including the American Legion - interpreting the fleeting tribute as a sign of President Donald Trump's pettiness. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/government-and-politics/4491094-trump-turns-...
A federal judge on Monday blocked the release of blueprints for 3-D printed firearms online, ruling in favor of more than a dozen attorneys general who argued their publication increases the threat of gun violence across the country. The Seattle court order effectively criminalized publication of the gun design files, banning Texas-based company Defense Distributed from posting them on the Internet. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/crime-and-courts/4491099-federal-judge-blocks-publication-3-d-printed-gun-blueprints...
