I ask because of this headline:

Paired with this description of where the accident occurred:

37th Avenue NE is the East-West border street separating Minneapolis (NE Minneapolis) from Fridley. It’s about as far as one can get from South Minneapolis and still be in Minneapolis. No part of South Minneapolis is on the East side of the Mississippi River.
This just shows the Strib has finally reached the local knowledge quotient of TV announcers.
Good point, Charlie. I should also mention that I didn’t stumble upon that by reading the StarTribune.com directly. A 3rd party site that syndicates their headlines happened to have that, which piqued my interest since there are so few trains in South Minneapolis these days. Had the headline been true, the accident would have likely been near my house rather than about as far from my house and still within the bounds of the city as possible. My interest flipped from piqued to shocked when I saw how out of touch the StarTribune is with Minneapolis geography.
Maybe along with their creative services they outsourced their headline writing to India as well.
They probably lifted the story from the AP.
Just another example of that sorry rag’s slide into irrelevance.
Looks like the headline has been updated to “Worker dies after rail car pins him against building.” Nathan, Chao Xiong has the by-line.
