We are monitoring about eight fires throughout the county. All are under control at this time with the exception of a larger fire near Gilbert. Air Support is helping suppress that fire and no evacuations are necessary at this time. Please remain vigilant and stay safe

This reflects what we are seeing in public safety - more drug related psychosis damaging individuals, families and communites - and it is entirely preventable. Youth are using marijuana at high rates today. npr.org/2026/02/21/nx-s1-571…

A handgun was located in the driver’s seat area of the suspect vehicle.
To avoid any conflicts and ensure transparency, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) has been requested to investigate

Had breakfast with deputies working north county today. These guys cover a national park, the boundary waters, an international border, some of the largest mines in the USA in over 5,000 miles in their rugged area. I am so thankful for them and the important work they do!

Great evening at National Night Out in Gnesen Township! Got to reconnect with Mr. Myles, my Congdon Park Elementary principal, and retired Duluth Police Chief Scott Lyons—who gave me a shot on the force 30 years ago. Grateful for both of these great men. #NationalNightOut
