Marcus Joseph Anderson

The Complainant having reviewed the applicable reports believes the following facts to be true: On May 31, 2026, a sheriff was working in the area of Summit Avenue and Cleveland Avenue in Saint Paul, Ramsey County for a high school graduation. The sheriff observed a purple Dodge Charger (TX LIC XTF4699) with a cracked windshield, and very dark tinted windows pass by. The sheriff conducted a traffic stop and identified the driver as ELJ. There were two passengers in the vehicle. When the sheriff approached, the occupants did not make eye contact and became nervous.

The sheriff asked if there were any weapons in the car. ELJ looked back to the rear of the car and answered "yes". The sheriff had ELJ step out of the car and asked where the firearm was located. ELJ replied that it was in the backseat, while looking at one of the passengers, who was later identified as Marcus Joseph ANDERSON [DOB REDACTED], the defendant herein. Another sheriff walked to the rear passenger side and asked the defendant where the gun was. The defendant pointed to the floorboard and began to reach for the firearm.

The sheriff directed him not to reach for it and removed him from the vehicle. The defendant does not have a permit to carry. The firearm was located next to the defendant's right foot, and the sheriff noted that it could only have been placed there by him. The weapon was a Glock 19X (Serial No. CGFC697).
