OPINION

HARTEN, Judge.*

Appellant State of Minnesota challenges the granting of respondent's motion to suppress the evidence obtained from a blood sample taken from him without a warrant. Because we conclude that the exigent-circumstances exception to the warrant requirement applies to the facts of this case, we reverse the grant of the motion to suppress and remand to the district court for trial.
