ELBA, Minn – As deputies and state troopers were converging toward remote Beaver Creek, where a huge, noisy and drunken party had been reported, they were met by unusually heavy traffic for so late at night. At the party site they found nobody. It seems the revelers got word that the cops were coming and disbanded. Poof, they were gone. This was near County Road 30 and County Road 31, which has handy exit routes every which way — to Altura, Elba, Rollingstone, Weaver and points beyond.
