Law enforcement from 300 agencies across the state cited nearly 19-thousand drivers for speed violations in the month of July.

Officers, deputies, and troopers participated in the statewide extra enforcement and awareness campaign resulting in the nearly 19-thousand citations (18,983) citations.

During the campaign, Eagan police stopped two cars racing at 103 mph in a 50-mile-per-hour zone.

One driver was arrested for D-W-I.

A Foley police officer cited the same person twice just an hour apart for speeding.

And troopers in the Golden Valley District pulled over a 16-year-old driving on a learner’s permit for going 110 miles-per-hour.

His parents were called to the scene.
