Large police presence in south Minneapolis after apparent crash involving Minnesota State Patrol vehicle
There was a large police presence in south Minneapolis late Friday after what appeared to be a crash involving a Minnesota State Patrol vehicle.
WCCO saw the law enforcement car and a heavily damaged vehicle in the area of West 46th Street and Aldrich Avenue South around 10:45 p.m.
Firefighters worked to remove the trooper from the state patrol vehicle and put him in an ambulance. A law enforcement officer told WCCO the trooper hurt their shoulder and suffered cuts, but was otherwise okay. It hasn’t been disclosed whether they were taken to the hospital.
There were over a dozen law enforcement personnel, including members of the Minneapolis Police Department and Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office, and several emergency vehicles at the scene.
WCCO has reached out to officials for more information regarding the incident.
This story will be updated.
Minnesota starting quarterback Drake Lindsey was arrested early Friday in Arkansas for underage possession of alcohol and possession of fake identification.
According to a preliminary report from the Fayetteville Police Department, an officer was alerted by staff at the YeeHawg bar shortly after midnight about a possible fake identification document. Staff directed a police officer to Lindsey, 20, who admitted to having the fake identification and to consuming alcohol before arriving at the bar.
The Fayetteville, Arkansas native was taken to the Washington County Detention Center. A copy of the fake ID was discovered in his wallet. Lindsey signed a form for a minor in possession of alcohol/attempted use of fraudulent or altered identification document. He was released about seven hours later after posting $470 bond.
“We are aware of the situation and will address it internally,” a Minnesota spokesman said in a statement to ESPN.
The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Lindsey started throughout the 2025 season and set a team record for most wins by a freshman (8). He completed 249 of 386 passes for 2,382 yards and 18 touchdowns with six interceptions last fall.
Minnesota completed spring practice last month, and Lindsey completed 4 of 5 passes for 89 yards in the spring game. The Gophers open the 2026 season Sept. 3 at home against Eastern Illinois.
Lindsey has hearings set for June 1 and June 29 in Fayetteville District Court.
