A new wanted poster for a man suspected killing his ex-boyfriend at an Arden Hills gas station describes him as a seasoned traveler who likes to gamble.
The Ramsey County sheriff's office issued the poster Friday as the manhunt for 44-year-old Lyle Marvin "Ty" Hoffman continues. He's charged in the Aug. 11 shooting death of his former boyfriend and business partner, Boston-Scientific-executive Kelly Phillips.
The poster includes a new photo taken Labor Day at a metro area big-box retail store.
Hoffman is also suspected of robbing a TCF Bank in Blaine last Sunday. The stolen money included a security dye pack, so the sheriff's office wants citizens to report any money stained with bright-red dye.
There's a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to Hoffman's arrest and conviction.
