Here’s a copy of the charging document against Joshua Martin.
Martin is charged in the killing of Maplewood police Sgt. Joseph Bergeron. Suffice it to say Martin tells a different story than witnesses.
There is a suggestion, however, of what precipitated the shooting. Martin said Jason Jones, who was killed by police on Saturday afternoon, had a parole violation.
MPR’s Elizabeth Dunbar has filed this report on the charges.
Bob Collins retired from Minnesota Public Radio in 2019 after 12 years of writing NewsCut and pointing out to complainants that posts weren’t news stories. A son of Massachusetts, he was a news editor 1992-1998, created the MPR News regional website in 1999, invented the popular Select A Candidate, started several blogs, and every day lamented that his Minnesota Fantasy Legislature project never caught on.
