On December 24, 2025, at 1350 hours, Roseville police officers responded to Dollar Tree, [ADDRESS REDACTED] N, Roseville, Ramsey County, on a report of criminal sexual conduct. V1, a 43-year-old female, reported that she was shopping in the store with her juvenile daughter, when a male came up behind her and grabbed her buttocks with his hand. It was done without her consent. The male fled the store and left in a blue Dodge Caravan, paper temporary plate 04352884. V1 took photos of the suspect vehicle with her phone.
Officers watched store video, which showed a male, later identified as Dawntae Daquan Hudson, [DOB REDACTED], in the store. He did not appear to be shopping. He was wandering throughout the store staring at female shoppers. Hudson approached V1 from behind as she stood in front of a rack of merchandise. He reached down and grabbed V1's buttocks. He then exited the store quickly. Hudson is the registered owner of the suspect vehicle. A comparison of an MRAP photo of Hudson with the offending party in the store yielded a match.
