Report: Lauderdale Man Removes Nazi Flag From Backyard

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- One week after noticing a Nazi swastika flying in a backyard, neighbors in a Lauderdale neighborhood are relieved to see it taken down.

The Star Tribune reports Robert Wagner took the flag down after receiving a flood of calls from people complaining.
