Authorities: Teacher high on drugs at time of fatal Mankato police encounter

MANKATO, Minn. — Investigators suspect a Twin Cities teacher was high on multiple drugs when he was fatally shot by a Mankato police officer on New Year’s Eve.

A friend partying with Chase Anthony Tuseth, 33, of Chanhassen, on the night he died told a Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agent he believed his friend had taken the drugs LSD and Ecstasy, according to search warrants filed in Blue Earth County District Court.

Messages on Tuseth’s phone also reportedly suggest he had taken LSD, Ecstasy and Adderall. Suspected drugs also were reportedly found in Tuseth’s hotel room.
