Nicholas Donald Dellich

On April 8, 2026, an officer with the Burnsville Police Department was on patrol and positioned in a parking lot of a hardware store located in Dakota County. The officer observed a vehicle in the lot with an expired registration and noted that the registered owner had an active arrest warrant out of Ramsey County. The officer then observed a male, who did not appear to be the registered owner, exit the hardware store and get into the vehicle. The male then began driving through the parking lot and the officer followed in his squad.

The officer then activated his lights and sirens and attempted a traffic stop due to the registration being 16 months expired. The vehicle then accelerated though a stop sign and began to drive evasively around traffic, causing other motorists to maneuver their vehicles to avoid collision. The officer disengaged the pursuit as the vehicle accelerated away at high speeds. The officer contacted the hardware store’s loss prevention employee and obtained surveillance video. The loss prevention employee also provided twenty mugshots of Nicholas Donald Dellich [DOB REDACTED], “Defendant” herein.

The officer compared the mugshots to the surveillance video and determined Defendant was the suspect driver. The officer also learned that Defendant had an active arrest warrant out of Anoka County. Given Defendant’s conduct and his current warrant status, the State requests a complaint warrant be issued, as Defendant poses a public safety risk and his current whereabouts are unknown.
