State Trooper Pushes Semi Stuck in Snow
Occurred on April 10, 2019 / Owatonna, Minnesota, USA
Info from Licensor: "Our plans started out that we were going from Jackson Minnesota to Minneapolis Minnesota to catch a flight to Vegas on Thursday morning. A blizzard warning had been in effect so we decided to take off Wednesday, earlier than decided. We took i-90 to Albert Lea then got on I-35 we had heard that I35 had a standstill, so we got off on an off-ramp to take another back road. That's when we noticed just when we had pulled on, that there was a snow plow in the ditch on the left and a semi stuck in the road on the right. A state trooper had already been there directing traffic. Another state trooper came to the scene and had decided to try to push the semi. That's when I started recording. What usually takes about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get from our home to Minneapolis, took six hours in the bad weather. Our airline was the only one that canceled all flights. We were unable to book another flight to Vegas so we are rescheduling."
