Archived: Injured St. Anna Man Flees Scene of Rollover Crash
A St. Anna driver flees the scene of a one car rollover, delaying treatment of his injuries until officials find him three hours later. It happened early Thursday morning just south of Holdingford on County Road 9. The Stearns County Sheriff’s Office says 31-year-old Terry Laverne Runge was driving north on County Road 9 when he crossed the center line and drove into the ditch, striking a culvert. Officials searched the area but were unable to find Runge. About three hours later, the Sheriff’s Department says it received a call from Runge’s roommate, who reported Runge was lying in a cornfield northwest of the crash site, unable to move from injuries received in the crash. Runge was found and taken to the hospital. The incident is still under investigation.
