Authorities in central Minnesota say a 16-year-old boy was injured Saturday when he was accidentally run over while playing “Nerf Wars.”Police in Sauk Rapids say the teen from Rice was hiding on the ground next to a vehicle in Southside Park when his friend accidentally drove over him. The teen’s injuries were not life-threatening. The Nerf Wars game, in which high school students wage public battles using foam dart guns, has raised safety concerns across Minnesota for years.

State officials are voicing concern about the status of energy assistance for low-income Minnesotans after the Trump administration laid off all the staff within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services who administer the federal program. Minnesota receives more than $100 million every year from the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program to help people pay home heating costs.
