(Norman County, MN) -- Ada Mayor John Hintz is facing his second DWI charge.
The truck he was driving was found overturned in a ditch in November by the Norman County Sheriff's Office. Hintz failed two sobriety tests and a urine test showed a BAC of nearly three times the legal limit.
He is charged with driving while impaired and reckless driving. The mayor has a previous DWI conviction from 2008 that happened in Ada.
The 36-year-old has served as Ada's mayor since November 2019.
