ACKLEY --- An Ackley man has died after being found on fire behind a grocery store yesterday. The Iowa Department of Public Safety says that Hardin County authorities were called shortly after 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon to the alley of the Ackley Super Foods store. On arrival, they found the garage at 509 1st Avenue near the store’s parking lot was totally engulfed in flames, however citizens had already extinguished the flames from the man on fire. 27-year-old Derek James Harrop-Miller was airlifted bound for the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics’ burn unit, but he died while in flight. An autopsy is scheduled to be held Thursday in Iowa City. The fire and death remain under investigation by the Iowa State Fire Marshal’s office as well as Ackley authorities.

Favre in Twin Cities to sign with Vikings
|
|
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Brett Favre is on his way to Minnesota to meet with the Vikings. Coach Brad Childress confirmed in an e-mail to The Associated Press Tuesday morning that the veteran quarterback was traveling from Mississippi to meet with the team. Asked if the plan was to sign Favre on Tuesday, Childress replied: "In a perfect world." Favre, a longtime star in Green Bay, came out of retirement last season to play for the Jets. He retired again, only to then entertain the idea of joining the Vikings. Last month, Childress said the quarterback would stay retired.
