Police Create Perimeter, Catch Theft Suspect in Albertville Thursday Morning

Several blocks and business parking lots were splattered with police squad cars in Albertville this morning in a perimeter and search of a suspect in the alleged theft of a truck and trailer.

The suspect was found around 9:15 a.m. His has not been released.

"I imagine people who live around there saw a lot of commotion," a Wright County Sheriff's Office dispatcher told St. Michael Patch.

The Wright County Sheriff's Office and the Hennepin County Sherriff's Office K9 Search Unit surrounded the area near 57th Street Northeast and Kalland Avenue Northeast. Police recieved a report that the stolen truck and trailer was abandoned in that area.

The truck was found in Medina, but deputies created a perimeter in search of the suspect.

The suspect was arrested around 9:15 a.m. and taken to Wright County Jail.

The dispatcher said although the area was mostly occupied by businesses, residents were safe during the search of the suspect.

"If people in the area were in danger, we would have sent out a telephone note," the dispatcher explained. "But this was in the business area of Albertville."
