WABASHA, Minn. – A Millville man, Joshua Daniel Larson, 47, was placed on probation for five years for his part in a 2020 gang attack with a nails-studded baseball bat that severely injured a man at a campground on the Zumbro River. Judge Christopher Niesen ordered the probation while also suspending a 17-month prison sentence. Larson had pleaded guilty plea to a felony charge of second-degree riot while armed with a dangerous weapon. The plea came after charges of first-degree attempted murder and first-degree and second-degree assault were bargained down. The criminal complaint said that the victim had puncture marks on his head, torso and butt. In all, four persons were accused of the attack.
