Man kills co-worker in Minnesota

Douglas J. Saunders allegedly entered Fast Distributing Inc. of Mountain Lake, MN about 7:30 a.m. on December 17th and shot co-worker Howard O. Hockel with a shotgun. Hockel died on the scene while Saunders was arrested after a brief chase by authorities. Investigators are not considering the shooting a workplace crime because the two men had previous contacts with each other and that the incident stemmed from a non-work related issue.
