The record lists a third-degree alcohol-related DWI allegation and an additional extradition detainer entry.
Third-Degree DWI Allegation Listed
According to the jail roster, Path was booked with an allegation described as “3 Deg DWI Alcohol.”

It also does not identify the vehicle or explain how the alleged impaired driving was discovered.
No alcohol test results appear in the supplied record.
What Minnesota Law Says About Third-Degree DWI
Minnesota Statute 169A.26 establishes the requirements for third-degree driving while impaired.
The law includes impaired-driving offenses involving one qualifying aggravating factor.
It also covers certain offenses involving refusal to submit to chemical testing.
Minnesota law identifies several possible aggravating factors.
These include a qualifying previous impaired-driving incident within ten years.
Another involves an alcohol concentration of 0.16 or higher within the legally specified testing period.
A qualifying child passenger can also be an aggravating factor.

Additional sentencing requirements may apply depending on the circumstances.
