FARIBAULT, Minn. (AP) - A man shot and killed his ex-wife before killing himself at the Faribault Chamber of Commerce office.
59-year-old Barbara Larson served a restraining order this week on 61-year-old Richard Larson, who retired from the department in 2008. The two were divorced in 2014.
They were found dead at 12:15 p.m. Friday behind the front desk at the Chamber. A gun was found nearby.
Chief Andy Bohlen says his department's collective hearts are broken after responding to such a tragedy.
The Rice County sheriff's office and the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension are assisting in the investigation.
Faribault is about 50 miles south of Minneapolis.
