Minnesota State Patrol Arrests Son of Hennepin County Sheriff

Ryan Stanek, 24, is in trouble with the law again after the Minnesota State Patrol arrests him for DWI

The son of Hennepin County Sheriff Rich Stanek has landed in his father’s jail once again.

Ryan Stanek, 24, was arrested for DWI by the Minnesota State Patrol and booked into the Hennepin County Jail early Saturday evening.

This isn’t the first time Stanek’s son has been in trouble with the law.

Last May, he rear-ended and severely damaged a Brooklyn Center fire truck, prompting a search of his vehicle where authorities found suspected marijuana.

In 2015, he was arrested for DWI on New Year’s Day by Maple Grove Police.

He was also cited for marijuana possession in 2012 and felony property damage in 2014.
