COUNTY SHERIFF DAHL: KEEP THAT VEHICLE READY

Crow Wing County Sheriff Todd Dahl continues to warn motorists that winter's nasty bite hasn't let go yet, that the bitter cold temperatures we're living through could be deadly. Dahl said if you operate a vehicle, make sure its in good running order and the gas tank has something inside beyond fumes. Dahl said county squad cars are usually kept as close to topped off as possible, to avoid getting stranded somewhere and also to be ready for the ocassional 'lights and sirens run'. The Sheriff said there are a lot of fairly desolate areas in the county that wouldn't be a good place to become stranded.
