Drivers racing on Eagan highway were going 100+ mph before deadly crash, search warrant shows
Authorities allege three drivers were in a street race when one of them crashed in the southern Twin Cities metro, killing a teen and severely injuring another earlier this month. The crash happened at approximately 11:17 p.m. on June 14 at the intersection of Highway 149 and Highway 55 in Eagan, Minnesota. Court documents obtained by WCCO say the three vehicles involved in the race — a Jeep Compass, Honda Accord and Dodge Durango — had been traveling at speeds over 100 mph in a 45 mph zone when both the Jeep and Honda lost control. Authorities say the Honda came to a rest in the ditch, while the Jeep hit a light pole. The impact caused the Jeep to split in half. The Dodge stopped without crashing. A search warrant says the driver of a Jeep Compass had been going 100 mph before striking a light pole, splitting the vehicle in half in Eagan, Minnesota, on June 14, 2025. WCCO The Minnesota State Patrol says the driver of the Jeep, identified as 19-year-old Reed Schultz of Savage, died in the crash. An 18-year-old man from Edina, who had been a passenger, is in critical condition and is not expected to survive, according to court documents. When troopers arrived at the scene of the crash, court documents say the 20-year-old owner of the Honda had fled the scene. Authorities reached out to the White Bear Lake man, eventually finding him at St. John's Hospital. A search warrant says the man admitted to being involved in the crash, driving fast, going 90 mph, drinking alcohol and being a "dumb a**." No arrests have been made in connection with the crash.

Illinois Attorney General sues Gast Monuments, says company failed to provide paid-for headstones
Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul announced Wednesday that his office has filed a lawsuit against Gast Monuments and its principals, claiming the headstone and memorial producer misled and deceived customers into paying thousands for orders that came late or never at all. "Gast Monuments' long history as a family-operated local business attracted customers who trusted the company's decades of experience to provide services during what is often a very emotional time for families," Raoul said in a news release. "It is unacceptable that many of these trusting customers were exploited and never received the burial monuments they paid for or refunds for work that was never completed. My Consumer Fraud Bureau will continue to work to hold businesses that intentionally take advantage of Illinois consumers accountable." Gast Monuments was founded by the Gast family in the 1880s, and was located at 1900 W. Peterson Ave. in the Chicago's West Ridge neighborhood. The company provided burial monuments, grave markers, memorials, and headstones — and specialized in designing and selling custom memorials and adding inscriptions to existing ones, the attorney general's office noted. CBS News Chicago has reported extensively on Gast Monuments, after several families said the company never delivered the headstones for which they paid. The Archdiocese of Chicago also accused Gast of not paying the required fees necessary for installing monuments. In August of 2024, Gast Monuments went out of business. Raoul said his office has received complaints from 130 Gast customers who paid for services that were never provided. Collectively, they paid about $660,000. At least 70 of those customers paid in full for memorials for themselves or their loved ones, and are out $200,000 altogether, the attorney general's office said. Raoul's lawsuit seeks to get restitution for everyone impacted, and to ban Gast's owners from ever offering burial services in the future.

Man killed in shooting at Texas Tech had been accused of attempted murder in Holly Hill
A former Daytona Beach man who was once accused of attempted murder in Holly Hill was shot and killed in a shootout with police on the campus of Texas Tech University, according the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, a Gannett publication. Rhino Simboli, 63, was shot dead in the shootout in which two Texas Tech police officers were wounded, the Avalanche-Journal reported June 25. The Texas Tech Police Officers were on routine patrol at about 12:45 a.m. June 24 when they noticed a suspicious vehicle on campus near the Jones AT&T stadium, according to the Avalanche-Journal. When the officers approached, Simboli drew a gun and fired at them. The officers fired back, killing him. The officers suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were taken by ambulance to University Medical Center, according to the Avalanche-Journal. One officer has since been released. No further details were available. Simboli was living on Catherine Avenue in Daytona Beach when he was arrested six years ago for a shooting in Holly Hill, according to records. In that case, Simboli showed up at the home of Mark Vogenitz on Jasmine Avenue around 4:40 p.m. on Aug. 4, 2019, and knocked on the front door of the home's enclosed porch, according to a previous News-Journal story by Patricio G. Balona. Simboli asked about a piece of mail. Vogenitz told Simboli he had the wrong address and to please leave. Vogenitz then closed the door, police said. Simboli knocked on the door again. Vogenitz opened the door again. But this time Simboli had pulled out a pistol and was shouting "I know there are kids in there," a report shows. Vogenitz and Simboli then struggled over the door until Vogenitz managed to close it. The two then struggled over the door handle. Simboli then fired two shots through the door at Vogenitz, police said. Vogenitz hid in his backyard as he called 911. Simboli came into the backyard as Vogenitz was talking on the telephone with dispatchers, investigators said. Simboli pointed the gun at Vogenitz's head and shouted "Don't move," a report stated. Vogenitz said Simboli "took an aggressive tactical stance." Vogenitz later said "he thought his life was going to end." At that moment, police arrived, drew their weapons and ordered Simboli to the ground. Simboli would not say why he went to Vogenitz's home, investigators said. But when he was arrested, Simboli uttered "I wish I blew his (expletive) head off. Why the (expletive) should I keep him alive," police wrote in their report. The State Attorney's Office charged Simboli with burglary of a occupied dwelling with an assault while armed with a firearm. Adjudication was withheld on the charge, meaning he was not convicted. Prosecutors declined to charge him with attempted first-degree murder. Simboli reached a plea agreement in the Holly Hill case in which he was placed in Veterans Court and placed on a minimum of 36 months of supervision. He was ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation and any recommended treatment. Simboli was also ordered to not live in Holly Hill. He was ordered not to go within 500 feet of the victim's home or workplace, and was prohibited from having any firearms or weapons. The court file also indicates Simboli underwent a psychiatric evaluation. Simboli completed the terms of his supervision on Oct. 1, 2023, and supervision ended, according to court records in Volusia County.
