(St. Paul, MN) -- Minnesotans are being urged to pay more attention at the pump, and it's not because of the prices.  

There have been several reports of water being mixed with fuel at Holiday Stations in Mankato and New Hope, according to the State Department of Commerce. CBS News reports a mechanic found one resident's tank was filled with over 90% water. The department says people should check the stickers on pumps to see if the gas quantity and quality was tested within the last year. If so, drivers should feel confident that the pump is safe to use.
