The West Central Tribune detailed those troubles:
Under questioning by Kandiyohi County Attorney Jenna Fischer, Larson described the last time she talked with her husband, the evening before he was shot and killed in October 2011. The 11-minute call included that Tim Huber was on Larsonβs fatherβs property fixing something and that Tim Larson had asked Huber to leave several times but that Huber would not leave the rural Belgrade property. ...
Larson also testified that her husband was also frustrated with his father, Norman Larson, because Norman had allowed cows to graze on corn specifically planted to attract deer for hunting. The corn was planted on Tim Larsonβs land, a 40-acre parcel that Norman Larson had previously owned just southeast of Normanβs homestead.
