Jonathan Markle plunged three times into the cold, dark water of Lake Minnetonka in a last ditch effort to save his 8-month-old daughter trapped in his submerged SUV, news sources reported.
After the accident Markle was taken to a nearby hospital where they found his blood alcohol level was 0.13, much higher than his claim of drinking two beers, reported Star Tribune.
A day after being charged with criminal vehicular homicide, Markle made his first appearance in court, reported the Pioneer Press.
His next hearing is March 4, reported the Star Tribune.
