Police continue call for witnesses after body of Luke Jon Telega found in Hobart bin
Detectives in Tasmania are looking for a woman they've identified as one of the last people to see a man alive, before his body was found inside a bin in Hobart. Luke Jon Telega, 45, was found dead inside an industrial-sized garbage bin at Percy St in Bellerive on Monday morning. Telega was last seen by family at 10pm on Saturday. Police have been putting together a timeline of his final movements, in an attempt to investigate how he ended up in the bin and weather he met with foul play or misadventure. An autopsy showed no visible signs of injury, and police confirmed there was a significant gap between when he was last seen and the discovery of his body. CCTV footage shows that Telega catching a bus at Tollard Dr, in Rokeby, last Friday at 4.34pm. A woman in a light-coloured hoodie joins the bus at the same time and is then seen to exit the bus at the same stop as Telega, in the car park of the Shoreline Hotel several minutes later at about 4.38pm. There is no suggestion the women was involved with Telega's death, however, police said they believe she may be able to help with inquiries. 'Police are trying to piece together Mr Telega's movements leading up to a garbage contractor finding his body,' they said. 'Further, police still wish to speak with (another) woman shown on CCTV footage standing at a shopfront on Percy Street about 7:50pm on Sunday. 'Police believe the member of the public may have spoken with someone in Percy Street at the time and may be able to assist with inquiries. The woman was driving what is believed to be a light-coloured Toyota Prado. A third woman shown on CCTV footage standing near a red SUV in Percy St on Sunday night has contacted police and no further action was required, police said. The bin where Telega was found sits behind a Salvation Army outlet and is known to be frequented by people sleeping rough, Tasmania Police Detective Inspector David Gill said on Tuesday. It is unclear if Telega had been sleeping in the bin.

This Gorgeous Lake in Minnesota Just Got a New Hotel for the First Time in 100 Years
Lake Minnetonka's only waterfront hotel, The Shoreline, opened on May 1 with 27 guest rooms, including a presidential suite, a restaurant, a 32-slip marina, and a sandy beach. Most rooms feature private balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows, and panoramic water views. The full-service restaurant serves coastal-inspired cuisine with local influences. The hotel has partnered with a professional wakeboard athlete to offer on-site classes. The Shoreline Hotel, Lake Minnetonka's first hotel in a century, opened in Spring Park, Minnesota, on May 1. Located on the site of a former yacht club and office building, the boutique hotel has 27 guest rooms, including a presidential suite, a sandy beach, and a restaurant with coastal cuisine. The rooms' interiors are inspired by the hotel's lakefront surroundings and feature pebble tile and quartz countertops and floor-to-ceiling windows. As The Shoreline is the only hotel situated on the lake, most guest rooms offer unobstructed water views, too. Larger groups and families can stay at the king suites, which include sleeper sofas, or request a room with bunk beds. Kelly Olsen, the hotel's owner, told Travel+Leisure that she avoided designing the spaces in a "kitschy" nautical theme because she wanted the focus to remain on the lake. Scenic lake views from inside a guest room. 'Everything is in neutral colors, but there are a lot of textures, too. [...] We did a two-tone paint on the walls—it's lighter on the top than the bottom. That line brings your eye to the lake even more," Olsen explained. As an ode to her late husband, who was an artist, she decorated the hotel's public spaces with original art and plans to host artist exhibits. Cabana Anna's, the hotel's all-day restaurant, is named after Olsen's late grandmother and focuses on healthy coastal fare with local influences. 'She lived to be 104 and was the maid of honor in my wedding when she was 100,' Olsen said. "I started to put all of those Blue Zone principles in the hotel in honor of my grandma.' The Shoreline also provides access to a 32-slip marina for guests arriving by boat. 'Some of the slips are seasonal rentals, and the rest are open for boat-up traffic for the restaurant and overnight parking for hotel guests,' Olsen said. 'I want people to feel comfortable coming in off their boat for happy hour or getting ceviche and sitting on the beach.' While Minnesota is renowned for its lakes and many lakefront cabins, this is the only hotel on a lake within the Twin Cities metro area. 'We're 25 minutes from downtown Minneapolis. I think there will be a lot of people who come here as a staycation," Olsen added. Lounge chairs and couches on the hotel deck. The Shoreline has partnered with professional wakeboarder and Minnesota native Alexa Score, who will teach classes on-site. Guests can also rent out paddleboards, kayaks, and e-bikes. Nightly rates at The Shoreline Hotel start from $299, and you can book your stay at
