AVON, Minn. (AP) – One person has died and another has been critically injured in a collision between a motorcycle and a deer in Stearns County.

The sheriff’s department says 47-year-old passenger, Laura Ann Tenvoorde-Behrend, was killed the motorcycle hit a deer about 8 p.m. Wednesday in Avon Township.

A car hit and injured two construction workers in St. Paul early Thursday, and the driver fled on foot and left behind two banged-up passengers and a loaded pistol, authorities said.

The crash happened about 12:30 a.m. on the ramp from southbound Hwy. 280 to westbound Interstate 94, according to the State Patrol.

The car hit a trash container and then a water truck in the construction zone, said Patrol Lt. Eric Roeske. Two construction workers were knocked down in the process but had “very minor” injuries, Roeske said.

The driver ran from the scene, Roeske said. The two passengers with minor injuries “claimed not to know who the driver was.”

There’s no further word on why a loaded pistol was in the car.

A 76-year-old woman was run over and killed Monday morning in southern Dakota County when she stepped in front of a car near her mailbox, across the highway from her home, authorities said.

Two-lane Hwy. 50 was closed for hours in both directions east of Hwy. 52 as investigators worked the scene.

“We believe she may have had to cross the street to get the paper and was returning to her house,” said Patrol Lt. Eric Roeske.
