Standoff

A Buffalo man is charged with engaging in a standoff with law enforcement for nine hours while driving his truck around on a frozen lake. 38 year old Timothy  Dunn, is facing DWI charges for the incident that took place last Thursday evening.  Criminal charges detail Wright County deputies were called to an address in Maple Lake Township on reports of an intoxicated person who was behind the wheel of a GMC truck.  Before officers arrived at the scene, Dunn drove his vehicle onto the frozen surface of Lake Sullivan. Multiple deputies tried to get him off the ice, and spoke with him over the phone, but he refused.  Dunn is then accused of driving around on the lake ice for 9 hours, repeatedly passing by deputies who told him he was under arrest. He refused to exit the vehicle, and drove away. Eventually, Dunn gave up and surrendered to deputies, who observed his speech was slurred and he smelled like alcohol. Investigators recovered open containers of beer in Dunn’s truck, and a preliminary breath test revealed a blood alcohol concentration of .11. Dunn was released from jail on Wednesday, and is representing himself in court, per online records. He has two previous DWI convictions in 2020 and 2016.  Dunn's next court date is set for February 20th.
