Three lawsuits have been filed from the April 2007 Chisago County veterans’ transport van fatal crash. The lawsuits state that the county was negligent in placing the driver of the van that transports Chisago County's veterans to and from medical appointments at the Veterans' Administration facility near Ft. Snelling. Driver James Carroll lost consciousness while at the wheel in April 2007 and crashed into an oncoming vehicle, killing that driver. Carroll, who also died, was coming back to Chisago County from the VA Hospital
