Authorities are still searching for a Windom, Minnesota, man who on Tuesday was convicted of murder in Cottonwood County.
After a week-long jury trial, 58-year-old Ralph Apmann was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder in connection with the 2021 death of Juan Rivera outside a bar in Windom.
Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says Apmann failed to appear for that trial on Monday.
Authorities say Apmann is armed with a 9-millimeter handgun and an AR-15 rifle… and he may be in the Twin Cities metro area.
Apmann is 5-foot-10, 230 pounds, with grey hair and hazel eyes.
The B-C-A says Apmann should not be approached.
