MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – A 35-year-old man from Zimmerman was arrested Wednesday night after a disturbance led authorities to find he was possessing and selling drugs, according to the Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office.

Jacob Knapik was arrested for fifth-degree possession, fifth-degree sale of a controlled substance and booked into the Sherburne County Jail.

Authorities were called to the 13000 block of 254th Avenue in Livonia Township at about 9:36 p.m. Wednesday on a report of a disturbance.
