Keith Gabriel Javner

N February 26, 2026, Cloquet Police Department Officer Childs observed an ATV without registration traveling on a public roadway by Keith Gabriel Javner [DOB REDACTED] hereinafter Defendant. Defendant had a revoked driver’s license status. Officer Mooers located Defendant and approached him to investigate a driving after revocation and unregistered ATV on a public roadway offense. Officer Mooers ordered Defendant to not start his ATV twice and Defendant ignored Officer Mooers lawful command. Defendant then rev the motor of this ATV and Officer Mooers proceeded to grab Defendant to prevent him from leaving the scene.

After Officer Mooers grabbed Defendant, Defendant drove his ATV and dragged Officer Mooers into a small tree in an attempt to escape detention. Defendant actions of dragging Officer Mooers with a motor vehicle created a risk of substantial bodily harm. The spinning tires of Defendant’s ATV caused abrasions on both of Officer Mooers’ legs. Officer Mooers also suffered injuries to his hand. Still holding on to Defendant after being dragged, Officer Mooers was able to drag Defendant off of the ATV. Defendant then gathered a top position on Officer Mooers for a short period time before breaking contact to flee again.

Defendant then got on his ATV again to flee detention and Officer Mooers deployed his taser causing Defendant to fall off of his ATV. Defendant then got up and ran away from Officer Mooers. Officers canvased the area and located Defendant hiding in a crawl space under a residential house. Defendant was then taken into custody.
