MPR's Lynette Nyman reports from Owatonna, where there are fights breaking out between some of the new and the old residents. That includes clashes against Somali members of the community.
There's a growing Somali population in Minnesota. Many have settled in the bigger cities, but there's now a small but significant Somali community in smaller towns throughout the state, including Owatonna. When someone new or different moves in they're bound to stand out. That's not always a good thing for newcomers.
