Michael Anthony George

On March 2, 2026, at approximately 4:24 P.M., Saint Paul Officers responded to University Avenue and Arundel Street, Saint Paul, County of Ramsey, on a group of individuals who were shooting dice and gambling with cash in public. When Officer Campbell responded, he saw two males walking away. One male had something in his hand. The male extended his arm up and behind a chain-link fence as if discarding something. This male was later identified as MICHAEL ANTHONY GEORGE, [DOB REDACTED]. GEORGE was stopped and pat searched.

Officer Campbell walked back to the area where GEORGE discarded an item and found two small twist-off baggies that contained a white rock-like substance on the ground behind the chain-link fence. Officer Kinn conducted presumptive tests on suspected drugs. Item #1, two separate bindles of suspected controlled substances. Item #1A, labeled clear plastic baggie with a white crystalized substance, result positive cocaine, net weight.26 grams. Item #1B, labeled clear plastic baggie with a white crystalized substance, result positive cocaine, net weight.24 grams.

Item #2, labeled small clear baggie with individual beige pills, result positive MDMA, net weight 2.33 grams/8 units. Video reviewed later by an investigator showed the group, including GEORGE, throwing dice and exchanging money. GEORGE walked to a chain-link fence, extended his arm, and appeared to drop something near the fence.
