Crosby (trfnews.i234.me) — Jason Paul Wynn faces two gross-misdemeanor charges after a single-vehicle crash in Crosby, according to a Crow Wing County criminal complaint. The complaint says a breath test showed an alcohol concentration of .20.

Two charges listed

The complaint identifies Wynn, 48, as the driver and registered owner of the vehicle. The charges stem from an incident reported on October 11, 2026. The court file number is 18-CR-26-3802.

One count accuses Wynn of driving with an alcohol concentration of .08 or more within two hours. It also alleges an aggravating factor: an alcohol concentration of .16 or more. The charge cites Minnesota Statute 169A.20.

The second count accuses Wynn of driving in violation of an alcohol-related license restriction. The complaint says his license barred alcohol use. That charge cites Minnesota Statute 171.09.

Complaint describes crash and testing

Deputies were dispatched at 5:39 p.m. to 22002 Cottontail Drive for a reported single-vehicle crash. The complaint says the vehicle struck trees south of the road while traveling west.

According to the complaint, Wynn said he had been drinking at the Woodtick in Cuyuna. He allegedly told deputies he had consumed seven mixed drinks within the previous hour. He also said he had been drinking since the Minnesota Vikings game began at noon.

The complaint says Wynn had slurred speech and told deputies he was intoxicated. He reportedly declined medical care and agreed to field sobriety testing. An investigator reported signs of impairment during an eye-movement test.

Wynn requested a preliminary breath test, which reportedly showed .214. He was arrested and taken to the Crow Wing County Jail. After receiving a breath-test advisory, he agreed to testing. The complaint reports a result of .20.

Case remains pending

The complaint lists a maximum penalty of 364 days in jail and a $3,000 fine for each count. Those are listed statutory maximums, not a prediction of any court outcome.

A criminal complaint presents allegations, not proof of guilt. Wynn is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. Charges, release conditions, and court dates may change as the case proceeds.
