WINONA, Minn. — The conductor on the St. Paul-bund Empire Builder called ahead that he wanted to throw an unruly passenger off the train. Winona police were waiting. The conductor said the passenger had been harassing fellow passengers. As the train pulled out, police proceeded with the arrest but couldn’t get a straight answer from the woman about her name. Five hours later officers deduced that she was Leah Elvera Deziel, age 43, of St. Michael, Minnesota. She was charged with refusing to identify herself and possessing illegal drugs.
