November 12, 2018 By Bill Werner

Authorities are seeking information from the public after the former police chief of Lake Park died Saturday in what investigators say “appears to be a hunting related accident.” The Becker County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a deceased male in a vehicle on a logging trail. Responders found the body of 53-year-old Jay Nelson about 15 miles northeast of Detroit Lakes on the White Earth Reservation. Officials are looking for information on any vehicles or persons who may have been in the area or heard gunshots.
