## Resource

Michael Todd Hart, 41, faces nearly four years in prison after a brutal chainsaw attack in a Hibbing apartment that injured his on-again, off-again girlfriend—before another resident shot him. While awaiting trial, Hart pulled off a daring jailbreak in September 2025, sparking a two-week manhunt that ended when deputies found him hiding under a basement stairwell in Cohasset. He resisted arrest and assaulted officers, and a 29-year-old woman was also arrested for allegedly helping him evade capture. Now, Hart’s facing a plea hearing on June 22 for the escape, to be held remotely from prison—showing how a single violent act can spiral into multiple serious charges and legal battles.
