ROCHESTER, Minn. – A jury has returned a split verdict for the second man arrested in a 2024 Rochester traffic stop.

Alonzo Noel Davila, 26 of Minneapolis, and Marice Stevenson Gill, 20 of St. Paul, were arrested on October 28, 2024, after their vehicle was pulled over in the 300 block of 4th Avenue SE at around 2:10 am.
