href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A regional jail entry lists Alexander Lee Lamb, 18, with an alcohol-related misdemeanor allegation.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied record gives Monday, October 26, 2026, as his incarceration date.<\/p>\n<p>The listed offense concerns alcohol consumption by someone younger than 21 under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n<p>The brief entry does not describe the events leading to the listing.<\/p>\n<h2>Underage Consumption Allegation Listed<\/h2>\n<p>The jail record identifies Lamb&#8217;s date of birth as March 27, 2008.<\/p>\n<p>It cites Minnesota Statute 340A.503, subdivision 1(a)(2), for the listed offense.<\/p>\n<p>The entry uses the code MS, identifying the allegation as a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n<p>No additional offense appears in the short excerpt provided for this report.<\/p>\n<p>The record does not identify where the alleged alcohol consumption occurred.<\/p>\n<p>It also provides no police narrative, responding agency, witness statement, or chemical test result.<\/p>\n<h2>What Minnesota&#8217;s Under-21 Alcohol Law Says<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/340A.503\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 340A.503<\/a> generally prohibits people under 21 from consuming alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n<p>The law includes an affirmative defense for qualifying consumption inside a parent or guardian&#8217;s household with consent.<\/p>\n<p>Whether that defense applies depends on facts not included in Lamb&#8217;s jail entry.<\/p>\n<p>State law also allows certain prosecutions where officials observe evidence of earlier consumption.<\/p>\n<p>That provision does not establish where the alleged activity occurred in this case.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/340A.703\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 340A.703<\/a> classifies applicable violations as misdemeanors.<\/p>\n<p>It also requires a minimum $100 fine when an under-21 violation is established.<\/p>\n<p>The listing does not establish that any fine or sentence was imposed on Lamb.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61077\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61077\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
