A Twin Cities passenger in the Toronto plane crash is suing Delta

Two passengers have filed separate federal lawsuits following last week's Minneapolis-to-Toronto Delta crash. Twin Cities resident Hannah Krebs, filed one of the suits while the other was filed by a Texas man. Krebs’ lawsuit claims the crash was caused by the flight crew's "gross negligence and recklessness."

And, after more than 15 years, change may be coming for the Northstar Commuter Rail between the Twin Cities and Big Lake. MnDOT and the Met Council Monday said they’ve started to study replacing that train service with buses, as a potentially more cost-effective option.
