KFAN radio host arrested
Last update: October 18, 2008 - 2:35 PM
Jeff Dubay, a talk show host on KFAN (1130 AM) was arrested by Maplewood police about 10 p.m. Wednesday on suspicion of fifth-degree possession of a controlled substance, a felony.
He has not been charged; police are investigating.
The arrest occurred after Dubay, driving west on state Hwy. 36, turned north onto English Street in Maplewood, Police Chief David Thomalla said Friday.
Because the case still was under investigation, he added, police were providing no details about why the vehicle was stopped, or what drug might be involved.
Dubay was booked into the Ramsey County jail, and later released pending further investigation.
Police hope to complete the investigation next week, the chief said.
Dubay co-hosts the "PA and Dubay Show" with Paul Allen weekdays from 9 a.m.-noon. He also co-hosts Vikings post-game shows on KFAN and is on the air for Gophers hockey games on FSN North.
He has not been on KFAN since Wednesday and did not appear on FSN North this weekend, either.
"I don't comment on personnel issues within the company," said Mike Crusham, president and market manager for Clear Channel Minneapolis, which owns KFAN.

Jeff Dubay of KFAN arrested.
I honestly don't know what to make of this news story? Having had the opportunity to meet Jeff Dubay a few times at the KFAN remotes he just doesn't come off as the type that would commit a felony. We will see how this plays out.

hey Goon, I know Jeffery as well. He's a good guy. From what it sounds like, he's gonna be ok. I hope.
ReplyDeleteHope he recovers as well. He is a good guy. Hope he gets to stay with KFAN but I would think it would be iffy. Bad part about that is, no Dubay.....NO MORE COLLEGE HOCKEY TALK ANYMORE!!!!
ReplyDeleteBTW, you need to settle the people down on SS, jumping off the ledge way too early already. As you said in one of your previous entries, I'm sure the Sioux will go on their "patented" 2nd half rampages.
From the Ramsey County Jail. Looks like Meth charges!!
