It's common for Minnesota Department of Transportation snowplow drivers to stop and aid people in distress.
So when Steven Jensen saw a man standing in the middle of Hwy. 210 Tuesday night near Battle Lake, he did what many of his fellow drivers do. He stopped to help.
That's when things got weird, said Judy Jacobs, a communications specialist for MnDOT's District 4 office in Detroit Lakes.
The man, dressed in black, approached the driver's door, climbed on the plow and told Jensen, "Get out of the truck," Otter Tail County Sheriff Brian Schlueter said.
Thanks MamaDearest.
If there is updates I would appreciate it.
This guy may be party of one or maybe
part of a trend.
I don’t know.
