Iraq War vet was Duluth homicide victim

July 3, 2007

DULUTH, Minn. (AP) — Duluth's first homicide victim of 2007 is an Iraq War veteran who had been home for only a week before he was killed.

Staff Sergeant Adam Sheda of Cloquet served an 18-month tour of duty with the Army National Guard in Iraq.

Sheda was shot to death early Saturday in Duluth's East Hillside neighborhood, after a dispute with a Duluth man.

Police are holding a 25-year-old suspect. He's expected to be formally charged Thursday.
