STOPPED WORK ON THE NETWORK
WHILE IT REVIEWS WHAT HAPPENED
AND THE SECRETARY INVESTIGATION
COULD LEAD TO FINES AGAINST
BOTH COMPANIES.
THERE IS A NEW WAY TO ROLL
AROUND THE CAPITAL CITY.
HUNDREDS OF BIKES JUST ARRIVED
IN ST. PAUL DOING A FLEET OF
SCOOTERS THAT HIT THE STREET
EARLIER THIS MONTH.
ALL OF THEM ARE DOC LESS.
KNEW IT 6, ANGELA DAVIS SPOKE
