Minnesota DNR and local law enforcement are stepping up patrols on the water July 3-5. Boating under the influence carries the same legal consequences as a DUI on land.
As the holiday spirit fills the air, the Minnesota State Patrol has a timely reminder about keeping roads safe, especially with those festive decorations in mind.
According to the Minnesota Law Enforcement Memorial Association, Theodore Joseph "Ted" Foss was struck and killed by a tractor trailer in 2000 while conducting a traffic stop on I-90 in Rochester, Minnesota.
