Minnesota Olympic Hockey Star Found Incompetent to Stand Trial
The decision was made during a hearing Monday in Cook County.
GRAND MARAIS, Minn.–“Miracle on Ice” Olympic hockey star Mark Pavelich has been found incompetent to stand trial for felony assault.
The decision was made during a hearing Monday in Cook County.
The Minnesota Duluth alum and former N-H-L player was arrested in August when a neighbor reported Pavelich attacked him with a metal pole.
The judge said at the time there was reason to doubt the 61-year-old’s mental competency and ordered an evaluation. Pavelich also had an illegally-shortened shotgun in his Lutsen area home.
