Alan Randolph Heywood

On March 11, 2026, at approximately 1944 hours, St. Paul Park Police Department Officer Thisius was dispatched to Corner Giant Wash at [ADDRESS REDACTED] in St. Paul Park, Washington County, Minnesota, for a report of a male waving a knife around. Upon her arrival at the location, Officer Thisius made contact with the complainant, Witness (an adult male fully identified in police reports) and asked him where the suspect was. Witness said that the male was either in the bathroom or had exited the business.

Officer Thisius found and detained the suspect, ALAN RANDOLPH HEYWOOD [DOB REDACTED] in the bathroom of the business. Officers took a further statement from Witness, who said that he saw Heywood enter the building with a knife in hand, and he was "muttering obscenities under his breath," and appeared to be under the influence of a controlled substance. Heywood was searched while being detained, and officers found a folding knife in his pants, and a folder piece of paper in a pants pocket. When Officer Thisius later opened up the piece of paper, she found a substance that later tested positive for methamphetamine and weighed 1.4 grams in total.
