Minnesota Republican arrested Saturday for trespassing.

Rep. Matt Grossell, R-Clearbrook, was arrested for trespassing Saturday morning, according to Ramsey County jail records.

The retired Clearwater County sheriff’s deputy was arrested by St. Paul police officers about 3:30 a.m. He was released at 5:21 a.m. on his own recognizance.

Grossell released the following statement Saturday afternoon: “Saturday morning, I received a citation in St. Paul. I apologize to my family, my constituents, my colleagues, and my friends. As a retired Deputy Sheriff, I will fully cooperate with any next steps.”

The circumstances surrounding the arrest are unclear.

Grossell, 53, was elected in 2016 and is serving his second term. He is single with three grown children.

Grossell’s background in law enforcement is relevant to his work and stature at the Capitol, where he could be considered a law-and-order conservative.
