On This Date in Minnesota History: July 6

*July 6, 1910 – Tony Jentz, who last week stabbed Vinco Rosz and skipped town, was caught today by Chisholm Chief of Police Apel and landed himself in jail. The chief concluded that as Jenz had money coming to him from the Oliver Mining office, in the course of time he would call for his pay. Sure enough, Tony called this morning, and after a little phone work, was safe in the hands of the officers of the law. His trial is set for Friday morning when he is to appear before Judge Freeman. In default of the $250 bail, Tony will lie in jail until the day of his trial.

At his trial on July 8, Jentz was found not guilty.
