provision addresses refusal to submit to a breath test under Minnesota\u2019s impaired-driving laws.<\/p>\n<p>The second listed offense cites Minnesota Statute 169A.27, subdivision 1.<\/p>\n<p>That law covers fourth-degree driving while impaired.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can review <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/169A.20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Minnesota Statute

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Minnesota Statute 169A.27<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What the Statutes Cover<\/h2>\n<p>The listed statutes address separate parts of Minnesota\u2019s DWI system.<\/p>\n<p>One concerns an alleged refusal after a breath test request.<\/p>\n<p>The other describes fourth-degree driving while impaired.<\/p>\n<p>Minnesota law classifies fourth-degree DWI as a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n<p>However, the booking entry does not explain why both counts appear.<\/p>\n<p>A criminal complaint may provide the facts supporting each allegation.<\/p>\n<p>That document was not included with the booking details supplied for this report.<\/p>\n<h2>Case Remains Pending<\/h2>\n<p>The booking entry identifies both matters as adult arrest allegations.<\/p>\n<p>The information does not provide details about the traffic stop, road conditions, or reported test request.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not list a court date, bond amount, or final case outcome.<\/p>\n<p>McMahon is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n<p>A jail booking records an arrest and does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n<p>Charges may change as prosecutors review reports and other evidence.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casscountymn.gov\/1321\/Detention-Center-Jail\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cass County Detention Center<\/a> provides public information about
