"Murder on Elm Street"

Join the Freeborn County Historical Museum, Library & Village and hear the chilling true story of Elm Street. The event is hosted by retired law enforcement officer Jeremy L. Luberts as he shares his role in investigating a burglary in which two teenagers break into the residence of a retired homeowner and lose their lives. The case quickly sparked a nationwide debate over just how far people can go to protect themselves in their own homes. The event, which starts at 7 p.m. Thursday, is free to members and $5 for nonmembers. Memberships start at $30 annually.
