The Owatonna Police Department puts out a weekly newsletter that highlights various calls for service, statistics, and notices to the public, the newsletter is free and is emailed to you weekly. One of the things that jumped out during this past week's newsletter was the statistics from the month of May which included the top-5 citations written during May. Care to guess what they were? No peeking!

According to the Owatonna Police Department's Just the Facts newsletter, during "the month of May, the Owatonna Police Department answered 3,890 calls for service, including 544 traffic stops, 82 alarms, 17 domestic disturbances, 205 animal calls, 27 juvenile calls, 196 medicals, 104 suspicious activity calls, 16 warrants, 101 ordinance violations, and 37 motor vehicle accidents."

"The Owatonna Police Department issued a total of 151 citations and 386 warnings in May."

So have you guessed what the top-5 citation types written by the Owatonna Police Department were in May? They were in no particular order "speeding, no seatbelt, no insurance, invalid driver’s license, and failing to stop."

How many did you guess right? If I would have had to guess, I don't think I would have gotten the failing to stop or invalid driver's license citations.

Here They Are - Minnesota's Last Six Old School Drive-In Movie Theaters

It's amazing to think that we shrunk from 80 drive-ins in the 50s to 6 now. And by amazing, I mean amazingly good luck. We have some in different parts of the state so no matter where you live, you can get to one. Some are not so close to us, but with only six in the state, that kinda thing is going to happen.

A big thank you to Drive-In Movie.com, it is a super complete site. Check them when you travel, you may luck into a great night of entertainment and nostalgia.
