In doing so, we first determine whether the language of the statute is clear or ambiguous. Westby v. Comm'r of Pub. Safety, 742 N.W.2d 443, 445 (Minn.App. 2007). Statutory language is ambiguous if it is "subject to more than one reasonable interpretation."
We have interpreted this statute to allow troopers to stop and arrest individuals for a public offense anywhere in the state, provided the offense is committed in the presence of the trooper. Westby v. Comm'r of Pub. Safety, 742 N.W.2d 443, 446 (Minn.App. 2007). In Westby, we reversed the district court's dismissal of proceedings and rescission of revocation of the driver's license, concluding that the trooper in that case had authority to make a stop on a county road.
