Average gasoline prices were a mixed bag across the country last week as oil markets went on a wild ride. However, as oil prices ease on optimism of a potential deal between Iran and the U.S., continued Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil infrastructure are driving refined product prices higher as output plummets. Gas Buddy says that by later this week, the national average could reach its highest level ever recorded for this point in the calendar year The national average price of gasoline has fallen 0.8 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $4.05. Average gasoline prices in Minnesota have fallen 10.1 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $3.94. The national average price of diesel has increased 7.1 cents compared to a week ago and stands at $5.32 per gallon.
The United States Attorney’s Office in Minnesota says a Red Lake man has been sentenced to 72 months in prison for receiving child pornography back in 2023 and 2024. Court documents show that Justyce Edward Lussier solicited and received pornographic images of a minor under the age of 16, and on at least two occasions, he contributed to the production of child pornography. “This sentence cannot undo the harm the defendant caused, but it delivered justice,” said United State Attorney Daniel N. Rosen in a statement. “My office will spare no resources to protect children and prosecute those who prey on them,” said United States Attorney Daniel N. Rosen.” The case was a result of an investigation by the FBI, Headwaters Safe Trails Task Force, and the Red Lake Tribal Police Department, with assistance from other local law enforcement partners.
