Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison reached a settlement with insulin manufacturers Eli Lilly, Sanofi, and Novo Nordisk, which guarantees that Minnesotans will be able to purchase a month’s supply of Eli Lilly and Sanofi insulin products for just $35 for the next five years.
“The settlement does not require you to have health insurance if you are uninsured; you can get Novo Nordisk insulin for just 35.00 a month. And if you have insurance, you can choose not to use that insurance and get the same price ($35),” says Ellison.
The AG’s Office has already created a website, MNInsulin35.com, to help consumers navigate the options opened to them by the insulin settlements.

A portion of West Broadway in Winona will be closing for about seven months. The closure starts April 7 and is part of the West Broadway Reconstruction project. According to the Office of Public Works, West Broadway will be closed to traffic from Hilbert Street to the railroad tracks between Jackson Street and South Baker Street. Vehicles westbound on Broadway are urged to turn off at South Baker to avoid having to turnaround near the tracks. Eastbound vehicles are recommended to turn off Broadway on Lee or Bierce Streets as the Hilbert Street intersection will be closed. A truck detour is planned on 5th Street. The closure is expected to last through October.

Winona Police have arrested a 17-year-old boy who allegedly shot another teenager in the eye with a BB gun. According to a WPD spokesperson, officers made the arrest Monday afternoon at a residence in the 150 block of East 8th Street. The boy did live there and was possibly hiding out from police. He's charged with second-degree assault and threats of violence.
Investigators say last Saturday a group of teenagers was hanging out in the playground area at the old Madison School. A confrontation arose and the boy shot the girl in the eye with the BB gun from "two to three steps away." The spokesperson said the victim does not appear to be seriously injured as she was struck in the eyelid, and the BB did not puncture the eye.
