A U.S. Bank executive is believed to have been killed in the plane crash that engulfed a Brooklyn Park home in flames on Saturday. Brooklyn Park fire officials said there were no survivors on the plane, and they believe only one person was on board the craft. Officials are not yet naming the pilot of the plane.

Students are rallying at the University of Minnesota Monday, four days after immigration officers arrested an international graduate student. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has not responded to a request for comment on why it detained the student, the status of the arrest and where they are being held. The arrest follows others at Columbia, Tufts and Georgetown tied to pro-Palestinian activism.

Hundreds of Minnesota state workers protested outside the governor’s residence in St. Paul over the weekend. The action organized by the Minnesota Association of Professional Employees union responded to Gov. Walz’s announcement that many state employees will need to spend at least 50 percent of their work time in the office.

Monday is International Day of Transgender Visibility. People are gathering to mark the event at the State Capitol.
