Jermaine Lamonte CollinsRepeat

On February 16, 2026, Officer Dunford of the Rochester Police Department was dispatched to a residence in NW Rochester, MN, Olmsted County. When she arrived she spoke with Victim (adult female identified in police reports). Victim reported that he ex-boyfriend, JERMAINE LAMONTE COLLINS [DOB REDACTED] had come over to her house that night. They were talking about their relationship and went to one of Collins family members house to play cards. While playing cards, Collins was drinking. When they got back to Victim's residence they began to argue about their relationship.

Victim facetimed another female and this upset Collins. Victim asked Collins to leave and he hit her phone out of his hands saying "you wanna play with me b****." Collins then placed an arm around her neck which made her fall. He kept his arm there and she could not breathe or speak. Officer Dunford noticed redness of Victim's neck. After Collins let go of her, he kicked the glass pane on the door and broke one. He also pushed her into a wall. Collins eventually left the residence. Collins was stopped a short while later and identified himself.

He stepped out of the vehicle and put his hands behind back without being asked. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE: YOU MUST APPEAR FOR EVERY COURT HEARING REGARDING THIS CASE. FAILURE TO APPEAR FOR COURT IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE AND MAY RESULT IN ADDITIONAL CRIMINAL CHARGES BEING IMPOSED AND PUNISHED AS PROVIDED IN MINNESOTA STATUTES SECTION 609.49.
