ALONG THE GUNFLINT TRAIL, Minn. (AP) — A highway accident involving a U.S. Border Patrol agent, that killed a local doctor, has inflamed tensions between residents in this far northern corner of Minnesota and the federal agents that patrol the nearby international border.
The ranks of Border Patrol agents have swelled since the 2001 terrorist attacks, making them a more visible presence in places like the Gunflint Trail, the 57-mile paved highway that snakes north from Lake Superior into the wooded Boundary Waters wilderness.
