Officers arrived on scene, along with EMS, however the suspect refused medical attention and denied that he had used any drugs, even though he had no good explanation for the needle in his trash can. The suspect was on probation and his agent decided to place a hold on the suspect and officers transported him to jail.

11) NORTH: Drug Overdose/Death Investigation – 12:51 a.m. MPD officers responded to Winchester St along with MFD for a death investigation.

12) NORTH: Accident with Injuries – 2:23 a.m. MPD responded to a single vehicle, single occupant crash with injuries in the area of westbound Hwy 30 near Fair Oaks Ave. Upon arrival, officers located a vehicle that had rolled over with a 34 year AAM driver who was unable to free himself. MFD responded and assisted with extrication. Driver was subsequently transported to UW Hospital with significant scalp injuries. Based upon on-scene investigation, it appears that the vehicle had been traveling the wrong way on Hwy 30, specifically eastbound in the westbound lanes. The vehicle ended up traveling in the ditch, in between the two lanes, and then veered back into the wrong lanes. It was at that time the vehicle struck a concrete embankment near Fair Oaks which caused it to flip over. Traffic citations were issued and left with the driver at the hospital. Investigation continuing.
