A man operating an excavator punched holes Monday in the wall of the five-story Freeman Building, the one-time home of Startribune.com and numerous business functions of the state's largest newspaper.

S., which was among the properties sold by the newspaper to make way for construction of the new Vikings stadium and a related mixed-use development.
