(KNSI) – From rescued to behind bars. That was the strange sequence of events for one woman on Monday night.
The Sartell Police Department was called to County Road 1 for a tuber that was struggling against the current on the river around 9:30. A friend arrived to pick her up and witnessed the woman get swept away out of sight.
The missing woman called her friend and rescuers were able to triangulate her location to a steep bank, where she was tied up in the thick brush.
Deputies from the Stearns County Sheriff’s Office discovered the woman was wanted on felony warrants in Benton and Sherburne Counties. She was taken to the Stearns County Jail for processing.
Also assisting were the Sartell and St. Cloud Fire Departments.
