More on murder in Minneapolis

The third suspect in the murder of Eric Pearson — triggerman Maynard Cross — was apprehended yesterday. The Star Tribune story on his apprehension mentions for the first time that Cross and 18-year-old codefendant Anthony Hayes had been identified as known Crips members by the Minnesota Gang Stike Force, a fact relegated to page B9 in the paper’s hard copy: “Last suspect in convenience store death is arrested.”
