RNC-Molotov Cocktail Trial Postponed

ST. PAUL (AP) ― A trial that had been scheduled to begin Monday for two Texas men accused of possessing Molotov cocktails while they were in town for the Republican National Convention has been postponed.

The U.S. Attorney's office in Minneapolis says no alternative trial date has been set for 23-year-old David Guy McKay and 22-year-old Bradley Neal Crowder. The pair were allegedly part of an Austin, Texas-based protest group that planned to use the incendiary devices to destroy property or injure police during the convention.

They have pleaded not guilty and are being held without bail.
