Despite Albertville Celebration, A Slow Week For Fire, Crime

The use of Sheriff's Office Reservists at Central Park and on the closed segment of Main Avenue has dropped incidents sharply during Friendly City Days. 

Calls to Albertville were kept to a minimum, and only a handful of arrests for DWI were handed out in the area during the weekend. 

"I think the Reservists do an incredible job during these festivals, all over the county," said Capt. Dan Anselment as he made his report lately to the City of St. Michael. "They deserve a lot of credit." 

A look at the calls:

June 7

Jeffrey John Blake, 37, St. Michael, was arrested in St. Michael for domestic assault and interference with a 911 call. 

June 8

Geoffrey Michael Brown, 20, Otsego, was arrested in Otsego for obstructing the legal process. 

June 10

Deputies and Albertville Fire responded to a two car accident at the intersection of 50th Street Northeast and LaBeaux Avenue. Two men were injured and extricated from one vehicle after another vehicle failed to yield on a left turn. 

June 11

Roland ALan Hedtke, 59, Otsego was arrested in Otsego for fleeing police in a motor vehicle and gross misdemeanor DWI. 

June 12

Scott Gerald Miller, 29, St. Michael, was arrested in Monticello for disorderly conduct. 

June 13

The St. Michael Fire Department responded to a fire alarm call in the 1900 block of Lander Avenue Northeast. It was a false alarm. 

The department responded to a medical call in the 4000 block of Lange Avenue. A male party was having severe abdominal pain. 

The sheriff's department also reported 17 property damage accidents, three personal injury accidents, two hit and runs and three var vs. deer accidents. There were four miscellaneous arrests for DWI, 14 underage consumption arrests and 67 tickets for varous traffic violations.
