According to Roseville Police, a driver hit the men at Snelling Avenue and County Road B2. One of the men flew over the top of the vehicle, while the other was stuck under the vehicle.
Police say the driver kept going and dragged the man for about 3/4 of a mile.
At one point the driver stopped to try to kick the man out from underneath the vehicle, but the man was stuck. The driver got back in his car and kept going, according to police.

Next door neighbor's son is a cop in Minn. He says whenever most young Somalis are either arrested or questioned by police they tend to immediately lawyer up as well as spitting and cursing at the cops and refusing to obey lawful orders.
They nearly always accuse the cops of brutality and he claims they are the nastiest, most offensive people he has ever met. For some reason police have orders to handle them with kid gloves.
Thanks.
Latest update says that the soldier dragged under the Jeep was in uniform. It is being reported that he will be OK.
WOW!
The perp also has a long criminal record.
KSTP 10 pm news (CDT) said the serviceman dragged under the car was in full uniform and has served in Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan. He is currently in surgery and is expected to recover.
“...He is currently in surgery and is expected to recover.”

Being dragged as far as he was, he’ll likely “recover” with painful scarring remaining.
