A Spooner man who survived the Minnesota ridge collapse will stand trial. Prosecutors say he caused life-threatening injuries to his fiancée’s daughter.

Michael Stoner is charged with first-degree reckless endangerment, physical abuse of a child and obstructing an officer.

A Washburn County Circuit Judge ruled prosecutors presented enough evidence during a preliminary hearing to warrant a trial.

Stoner and his fiancée were traveling to see her two-year-old daughter in the hospital when their jeep fell into the Mississippi River after the Interstate 35-W Bridge collapsed.
