Minnesota Rep. Dan Wolgamott arrested on suspicion of DWI
Stearns County Jail records say Wolgamott faces three DWI-related allegations, including criminal vehicular operation involving bodily harm, and remains in custody.
- On Wednesday, St. Cloud police arrested Minnesota State Representative Dan Wolgamott on suspicion of driving while impaired; he faces three charges, including criminal vehicular operation resulting in bodily harm.
- The arrest occurs three years after Wolgamott pleaded guilty to a previous DWI in Kanabec County, where he was caught driving with a blood alcohol level above 0.09.
- Responding to a stalled vehicle blocking traffic at 7:49 p.m. Wednesday, officers determined the car driven by Wolgamott "struck a legally parked vehicle," injuring a 37-year-old man who required hospitalization.
- Wolgamott remains held at the Stearns County Jail as of Thursday morning, with a Stearns County Sheriff's Office representative confirming the legal complaint had not yet been written.
- Having served in the Minnesota House since 2019, Wolgamott did not seek re-election this year and is scheduled to vacate his seat in January.
