Blooming Prairie

On Wheel of Fortune a couple of weeks ago, a woman from Blooming Prairie, MN was on the show and walked away with a huge cash prize.

The State Patrol says the injured motorcyclist was wearing a helmet.

The Blooming Prairie man was charged last summer following a 10 hour plus standoff in Austin.

Formal charges are expected to be filed next week.

Court records indicate he was caught in possession of child sexual abuse materials while flying back to the US from Thailand.

The State Patrol responded to the crash shortly before 9:30 Saturday night.

The 2-year-old was killed 5 years ago.

The holiday shopping season kicks off in Blooming Prairie on October 28th at the 49th Village Affair arts & crafts festival.
