Both men were being held without bond Friday in the Polk County Jail.
The investigation began when deputies responded to a call of a disturbance at 1205 Cherry Lane. They determined that Rey Sanchez had threatened to kill Rafael Sanchez and his family, PCSO reported.
The two men’s relationship was redacted in the arrest report, but it said they had previously lived together as family members and Rey Sanchez resided in a large shed on the property.
The arrest report provided this narrative: After being threatened, Rafael Sanchez fled in a vehicle and Rey Sanchez followed him to a gas station before returning home. Rafael then called police for help. Rey Sanchez, meanwhile, called the man and said, “If I can’t kill you, I’m going to kill your chickens.”
Minnesota state senator wants moratorium on egg oiling that keeps goslings from hatching Sen. Dave Senjem says Rochester s oiling of eggs to cut off oxygen is offensive. May 1, 2021 1:24pm Text size Copy shortlink:
Minnesota Sen. Dave Senjem wants to give Canada geese a fighting chance amid efforts to control their population in Rochester and the rest of the state.
The longtime Republican senator from Rochester recently attached an amendment to an omnibus bill that would temporarily halt the issuing of state permits allowing goose eggs to be oiled to prevent them from hatching or the use of other methods to destroy them. The yearlong moratorium would allow legislators to discuss whether those methods are acceptable.

The Jordan Family Pets
The Jordan family adopted several family members from Grand Junction s Roice-Hurst Humane Society, going back as far as the late 1970s. The very first pet we adopted from Roice-Hurst was back in 1978. We adopted Yeti, the world s best lap dog with the world s biggest feet (hence the name).
WEYMOUTH When the great horned owlet arrived at New England Wildlife Center s Cape Cod facility, it had so much blood on it that veterinary staff thought it had a serious injury.
But after an examination, the owlet showed tell-tale signs of rodenticide poisoning, which causes hemorrhaging and prevents blood from clotting. The owlet died soon after despite receiving a blood transfusion and vitamin K treatment.
Wildlife experts are urging people dealing with rodents to consider other options besides poison, which causes a drawn-out death and has far-reaching implications on other wildlife that prey on mice and rats.
The office of state Rep. James K. Hawkins, D-Attleboro, is working with advocacy groups to soon file a bill to make the use of rodenticides safer for animals that are often inadvertently poisoned.
