Eddie Lee Davis JR

, the above- named defendant, and the allegations contained therein. Based upon that information, your complainant believes the following to be true and correct. On or about June 1, 2026, Detective Herman of the Rochester Police Department was contacted by agents with Homeland Security Investigation regarding an investigation they had been conducting. HSI agents informed that through their investigation, they learned that Eddie Lee Davis, Jr., [DOB REDACTED] (hereinafter “Defendant”) was purchasing bulk amounts of methamphetamine and having it delivered to him via mail.

HSI agents further indicated that Defendant had arranged to have 15 pounds of methamphetamine mailed to him for delivery on June 3, 2026. The arrangement was made by a coopering source under supervision of HSI agents. It should be noted that 15 pounds of methamphetamine is far beyond a user amount and is strongly indicative of intent to sell/distribute. On June 3, 2026, RPD detectives and HSI agents packaged a box with 112.4 grams of a representative sample of real methamphetamine along with numerous pounds of “fake” methamphetamine, so the package weighed approximately 15 pounds.

An undercover agent then delivered the package to the address Defendant had provided to the cooperating source located in the 3500 block of 22nd Avenue NW, in Rochester, Olmsted County, Minnesota. Shortly after the delivery, Defendant was surveilled leaving his known residence and traveling to the area of package delivery. Defendant drove by the area and eventually picked up the package. Defendant then drove to a residence in the 900 block of 8th Avenue NE, in Rochester. As Defendant attempted to enter the residence, a marked squad car arrived with lights activated to stop Defendant.

The officer gave verbal commands that Defendant was under arrest. Defendant fled on foot through back yards jumping two fences. While fleeing, Defendant stuffed the package in a backyard storage container. Defendant was eventually taken into custody by RPD and HSI agents on 9th Avenue NE. 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.
