Rosemount Man Suspected Of Drug Use In Crash: State Patrol

DAKOTA COUNTY, MN — The Minnesota State Patrol says a Rosemount man caused a four-car crash on Highway 52 in Vermillion Township last week and is suspected of being impaired by drugs. The collision left two people injured.

On Oct. 20 just after 7 p.m., authorities say a 1996 Ford pickup pulling a trailer struck a 2011 Infinity, which then struck a 2015 Subaru Outback. The Outback hit a 2015 Subaru Sedan.

All four cars were in the left lane going north. Traffic had stopped because of a lane merge up ahead.

The driver of the Ford pickup, Marshall Anthony Knoll, 58, of Rosemount, never hit the brakes before the crash, troopers said.

Both occupants of the Infinity suffered non-life threatening injuries and were transported to Regions Hospital in Saint Paul.
