ASK A TROOPER

Q: My neighbor has cattle and horses, and I know they had gotten out of their fences and onto the road a few times. If they are struck by a vehicle, can he get cited or sued?

A: Law enforcement could cite your neighbor, and he could be sued civilly by someone who was injured or sustained loss because of an incident like this.

Minnesota state law says: “It shall be unlawful for any owner or any person having the control of any such animal to permit the same to run at large in the state.”
