East Grand Forks City Council member jailed after pleading guilty to breathalyzer refusal
Tim Johnson, who's been an East Grand Forks City Council member since 2019, pleaded guilty earlier this month to refusing to submit to a breathalyzer, and has been jailed at the Northwest Regional Correctional Facility since Friday, May 7. City prosecutors agreed to dismiss the fourth-degree DWI they charged Johnson with after police claimed they found him slurring his words and smelling of alcohol in a parked car near Sacred Heart School.
