LAKE LILLIAN

One person is reported to have died and another victim was injured by a man fleeing law enforcement from Minneapolis and leading a high-speed chase all the way to Willmar. The suspect is in custody.
May 11 marks the 40th anniversary of the explosion at the Lake Lillian Farmers Elevator that caused the deaths of two men and injured four others.
Ryan Leif Erickson, 63, had been a Blomkest volunteer firefighter since the age of 18. He died in the line of duty Thursday when a large grain bin was blown over by the high winds and fell on him as he was preparing to leave his farm to monitor storms.
Emergency responders discovered a deceased man under a collapsed grain bin just before 7 p.m. Thursday in Kandiyohi County.
