In broad daylight, a woman ran frantically across an empty parking lot, desperately calling out to someone in a car: "Help me! He's chasing me!"😨😳 The woman was breathing heavily and trembling. Just when everyone expected the worst, the man reached out and revealed his hand—his wallet! His tone of voice shifted abruptly from terror to shame and gratitude. "This is your wallet," he said. "You dropped it. I didn't want you to go without it. My wallet has been stolen before, and I know how awful it feels."

Levi Black is dialed in and goes the distance on the mound for the Hopkins W. Offense starting to warm up. OK, we won a game yesterday. We won today, that's "two in a row". Winning streak on deck!

Today is the day the river crested in 1997. Students walked down to the RED Rive and go perspective on where the water was 27 years ago. @schroederms_gf

Royals battle back down 7 and close out the win. 💣💣 2 Bombs from Jake Nordean and hits up and down the lineup. Big-time performance on the bump from Karl Schiebe to get the W and Elijah Stewart pitches a perfect frame to close it out for the save. Chanhassen up next on Friday.

Fans of ranked-choice voting in Minnetonka are winning big-time, 59-41%, with just two precincts uncounted. ("Vote No" keeps ranked-choice as the voting method, and the No vote is winning. Confusing, I know.)
