Travis Ryan Raymond

On March 19, 2025, at 0024 hours, St. Paul police officers stopped a motor vehicle for speeding and turn signal violations at Rose and Frank, St. Paul, Ramsey County. Officers identified the driver as Travis Ryan Raymond, [DOB REDACTED]. Raymond’s driving privileges were canceled, and he could not show proof of insurance on the vehicle. The passenger, Brett Santiago, had a warrant for his arrest. Officers decided to tow the vehicle. They conducted an inventory search of the vehicle and recovered suspected narcotics in baggies inside of an orange sling bag.

The substance presumptively tested positive for methamphetamine with a net weight of 79.53 grams. DNA analysis from the baggies containing the methamphetamine excluded Santiago. The DNA recovered from the baggies was a mixture of 5 or more individuals. Raymond’s DNA profile was not excluded from the mixture on one baggie. On the other baggie, a major male DNA profile in the mixture matched Raymond’s DNA profile. Raymond has prior convictions for Aggravated Robbery in the Second Degree in 2012, and Simple Robbery in 2011.
