APPLE VALLEY, MINNESOTA - A 41-year-old male from Farmington, Minnesota, was arrested by a Trooper from the Minnesota State Patrol after he was clocked going 81 MPH in a 65 MPH zone in Apple Valley, Minnesota.

According to a criminal complaint released by the Dakota County Attorney's Office on Saturday, November 4, 2023, a Trooper with the Minnesota State Patrol recorded 41-year-old Justin Siedschlag traveling at 81 MPH in Apple Valley, Minnesota in a 65 MPH zone. The Trooper initiated a traffic stop on Mr. Siedschlag's vehicle. When the Trooper approached the vehicle to speak with Mr. Siedschlag, he noticed that he had watery, bloodshot eyes and that a strong odor of alcohol was coming from his vehicle. When the Trooper asked Mr. Siedschlag how much he had to drink that night, he told the Trooper only two beers.
A field test was done on Mr. Siedschlag, which showed he had signs of impairment. When Mr. Siedschlag was given a breath test, he blew a 0.117, about 1.5x the legal limit. A second breath test was given at the police station, where he blew a 0.09.
