Minnesota State Highway 210

What are you doing? Court documents say 32-year-old Colton Locks or Lokes was driving and weaving through traffic, endangering others on the roadway.

He was pulled over near the I-35 off-ramp on Highway 210 near Black Bear Casino.

The officer writing the ticket wrote, "Due to concerns of the dangerous driving to be continued, the driver was taken into custody for reckless driving." He's facing misdemeanor and petty misdemeanor charges from the incident.

He's scheduled to be in court for his arraignment in mid-November.

Yes, I mean, I know it's been a long summer for a lot of our motorists traveling throughout the community.

So certainly we're looking forward to getting a little bit of downtime here as construction kind of wraps up on the Highway 210 project.

Need a breather.

Need a little bit of a breather, and it gives us some time to kind of reset and look at our 2027 construction program.

you hear that sigh of relief from everybody? I think I heard it.

A collective little sigh, yeah.

Yeah, so certainly we understand that there's a lot of things that come up during the summertime, especially with a large reconstruction project like Highway 210 is.

As we move into 2027, the contractor will kind of start working from west to east.

A 55-year-old Baxter man died Friday night in a single-vehicle crash in Brainerd.

The Minnesota State Patrol reported James Davis was eastbound on Highway 210 in his truck when it crossed into the westbound lanes at 7th Street NW, making contact with light poles and parked cars.

The crash happened around 7 p.m. Davis was pronounced dead at the scene.

Brainerd Police and Fire, along with Crow Wing County Sheriff's Office and North Ambulance, assisted at the crash.

So everything, think about half of Minnesota's Iron Range.

So from Deer River over to Hibbing and then north of Highway 210 in Aiken.

The path that brought me here, I've kind of been involved in public policy.

I was actually working for Congressman Pete Stauber at the time when my community looked at me and said there was an open seat and said, Spencer, it's time to run.
