• Apple Valley Man Hospitalized After Highway 77 Crash in Eagan (limitless-news.com) — A serious single-vehicle crash on Highway 77 in Eagan sent a 45-year-old Apple Valley man to the hospital after his pickup crossed the median and hit a concrete barrier near Cliff Road. The collision temporarily pushed the barrier into a northbound lane and closed it until MnDOT crews reset it. Authorities are still investigating what caused the truck to leave the ramp and haven't released an update on the driver's condition.
