Stillwater Couple Could Be Charged In St. Croix Crossing Scale

OAK PARK HEIGHTS, MN — A pair of teens could be charged for climbing on the St. Croix Crossing bridge last week. Officers were called to the bridge Thursday night where a 17-year-old girl and a 19-year-old man had scaled the pedestrian railing.

They were found sitting on the edge of the bridge, but left when police arrived.

The incident occurred just weeks after a Stillwater man jumped off the St. Croix Bridge and died when he hit the ice below.
