Sartell Police Investigate Resident’s Loud Movie Night–Plus More In This Week’s Blotter

Sartell is known for being a safe town in the heart of central Minnesota. With so much bad news in the world, it's endearing and entertaining to see some of the police calls that the Sartell Police Department has to respond to.

The department updates their blotter weekly on their Facebook page. It's safe to say, reading their blotter is my not so secret addiction. Some of my favorites from this week include; Officers closing open doors, police helping find lug nuts, authorities helping a man rid his vehicle of mice and police checking on someone's movie night.
