Small Town Fights For Safety From Sex Offender

A small northern Minnesota town is fighting a big city problem with how to treat a repeat sex offender living next to a child care center and 500 feet from a school.

Jeffery Holmgren, 37, moved to Minnesota after being convicted of sexually molesting a girl roller-skating in Nebraska. He's also been convicted and charged with similar sexual conduct in Minnesota and neighbors are trying to stop him.

"I've had it! My Minnesota nice is gone," said Ann Trippler, who runs a day care in her home on a quiet Chisago City street.
