The BCA says the man shot and killed by law officers had texted a woman and indicated that he had just killed his mother.

He had also indicated a willingness to shoot a police officer as means of escaping arrest.

The State Patrol responded to the crash in Mower County shortly before 1p.m.

The crash occurred shortly after 12 noon.

He is also facing sentencing tomorrow for check forgery convictions in the Mankato area.

Investigators identified the suspect when he called the victim’s phone after she was found dead.

The Blooming Prairie man was charged last summer following a 10 hour plus standoff in Austin.

Court documents say the victim told police that she was the actual shooter.

Police say the drugs were found while they were looking for man wanted on a warrant issued by the Minnesota Department of Corrections.
