JORDAN, Minn. (KMSP) - A 19-year-old driver is facing DWI charges and felony drug charges after he crashed through the Jordan Police department sign early Saturday morning.
Around 1:20 a.m. Saturday, an officer was transporting an intoxicated driver back to the police department when he noticed a car had crashed through the police department's entrance sign. The car then became stuck in a snow bank.
Two men, both 19, were attempting to dig the car out to free it from the snow bank. The driver admitted to using marijuana, taking Xanax and drinking alcohol. He refused all field sobriety testing, but he was "obviously highly impaired and he could not explain clearly how he drove off the road, crashed his car into our sign, or how he got stuck in the snow bank," police wrote.
