Father Of 5 Stabbed, Killed In St. Croix River Fishing Dispute
Content: The St. Croix River is known for being a great place to fish… when it’s quiet. Captain Steve Smith with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office in Wisconsin shared some of the details. “The group on the Wisconsin side, the conduct was inappropriate. The group on the Minnesota side was making statements like, ‘Why don’t you clean up your act. The challenge was made – ‘why don’t you come over here,'” Captain Smith said. Investigators said Kelly and his fishing buddy drove to the Wisconsin side and the verbal confrontation escalated. One of the men pulled out a knife and stabbed Kelly. He died at the scene. Mike Kelly is Peter’s brother. He drove from his home in Illinois to the crime scene Wednesday.
