FERGUS FALLS, MN (trfnews.i234.me) – Kenneth Louis Krabbenhoft, 51, was booked into Otter Tail County Jail on Monday, November 2, 2026.

The supplied jail booking record lists three driving while impaired entries involving alcohol.

The allegations include driving under the influence of alcohol and having an alcohol concentration of 0.08 within two hours.

The third entry identifies the alleged offense as fourth-degree driving while impaired.

All three entries are marked as misdemeanor-level offenses with an active status in the supplied record.

Three DWI-Related Entries Listed

According to the supplied Otter Tail County Jail booking information, Krabbenhoft has the following listed allegations:

  • 169A.20.1(1) – Operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.
  • 169A.20.1(5) – Operating a motor vehicle with an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher within two hours.
  • 169A.27.1 – Fourth-degree driving while impaired.

Each entry is marked with an “M” classification, indicating a misdemeanor.

The booking information does not describe the circumstances surrounding the arrest.

It also does not identify where the alleged driving offense occurred.

What Fourth-Degree DWI Means in Minnesota

Under Minnesota Statute 169A.27, fourth-degree DWI is classified as a misdemeanor offense.

This classification applies to qualifying violations of Minnesota’s impaired driving law.

The charge is generally associated with cases that do not meet the requirements for a more serious DWI classification.

A misdemeanor conviction can result in fines, possible jail time, and other consequences under Minnesota law.

Any sentence would depend on the court’s findings and the circumstances of the case.

Alcohol Concentration Allegation

Another listed allegation involves an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher within two hours of driving.

Under Minnesota Statute 169A.20, this alcohol concentration can support a DWI allegation.

The statute also prohibits driving while under the influence of alcohol.

These are separate legal grounds for alleging impaired driving.

The supplied jail record does not provide Krabbenhoft’s exact alcohol concentration.

It also does not identify whether breath, blood, or another testing method was used.
