State House special election is Tuesday. Funeral service with police honors for former St. Paul officer Felicia Reilly

Voters in a Minnesota House district make a decision Tuesday in a special election that will determine chamber control. The seat in the Roseville-Shoreview area has been vacant all session. In December, a judge ruled the Democrat who handily won in November did not properly live in the district.

A funeral service with full police honors is Monday for former St. Paul officer Felicia Reilly. Reilly died last weekend at age 67 — 15 years after suffering a traumatic brain injury when she was attacked while on duty. Reilly’s family said her death was due to injuries stemming from that assault. She spent nearly 17 years with the St. Paul Police department.
