(ABC 6 News) - The Olmsted County Sheriff's office is showing off a new piece of technology that should make its job much easier.

The department received 4 license plate readers about a month ago. The readers scan license plates as deputies drive... meaning the devices can check the license plates in an entire parking in the time it takes to drive up and down each line of vehicles.

When the readers were tested last week, two vehicles were discovered to be illegal. One had a revoked license, the other had been canceled. 

Better yet, the technology didn't cost tax payers a dime. They were paid for through a grant.

ABC 6 News reporter Katie Eldred is taking a closer look at the license plate scanners today. She'll show you what she found this evening on ABC 6 News.

(ABC 6 News)- A man wanted for 13 felonies, was arrested in Owatonna Wednesday night. Olmsted County Deputies had announced they were searching for 32-year-old Aaron Anderson earlier the same day.

Officials say Anderson stole a mint condition vintage Corvette from a private collector in Owatonna. Steele County Deputies met up with him and started a lengthy pursuit.

Deputies were able to catch Anderson when he lost control of the car and crashed into a field. His girl friend was also in the car at the time and was uninjured.

Anderson will remain in custody at Steele County until these new charges are filed. Once those charges are finalized he will be transferred to Olmsted County.

Anderson had warrants for 13 felonies and several misdemeanors out of Olmsted County.

Those charges range from felony theft and burglary to domestic assault.

(ABC 6 News)- Police are looking for two men who robbed a Rochester resident after a house party Saturday night.

Officers say it happened at a home in Southeast Rochester just before midnight. Party-goers decided to bring the party downtown and left the house.

Moments later the homeowner heard a knock at his door. Police say it was an acquaintance of his who was looking for a lost cell phone. The homeowner decided to go upstairs to his bedroom while the guest looked for his phone.

That's when police say two masked men entered his bedroom carrying a handgun. They told the man to stay on the bed and start counting.

A few minutes later the homeowner decided to call police. Officials say the two suspects made off with an undisclosed amount of cash, the victim's cell phone, and other misc. items.

The investigation is ongoing.
