Golden Valley and Minnetonka Police Departments arrested Jeffrey Frank, of Richfield, at Interstate 394 and Highway 100 on Aug. 21.
The intersection of Interstate 394 and Minnesota Highway 100 was a mess Tuesday morning as multiple agencies converged to take down a fugitive wanted by the Minnesota Department of Corrections.

[The following weekly update was sent out by Sen. Ron Latz (DFL-District 44).] We said good-bye to a friend this week; Senator Gary Kubly lost his year-long fight with ALS.
