Jury convicts Derrick Thompson on gun, drug charges in 2023 crash that killed 5

Jury convicts Derrick Thompson on gun, drug charges in 2023 crash that killed 5

A federal jury on Friday returned guilty verdicts against a Brooklyn Park man in connection with a crash last year that killed five young women on Lake Street in Minneapolis.
