Minnesota DNR brings felony charges in illegal spruce tops case
The Minnesota DNR is pressing felony charges against Blake Buschman of Babbitt, for the recent illegal harvest of more than 5,000 spruce top trees on private and county property, according to the St. Louis County criminal complaint.
Babbitt Conservation Officer Anthony Bermel said this isn’t the first time he has caught Buschman harvesting batches of spruce tops, when he seized about 1,300 tops in late October. He also caught him last October when he was in possession of more than 1,500 spruce tops.
