A Level 3 registered predatory offender with convictions for first-degree criminal sexual conduct and kidnapping was arrested at a Saint Paul laundromat after going months without checking in with law enforcement.
Allan Kingsley Kerr, 44, faces a charge of failing to fulfill predatory offender registration requirements in Ramsey County District Court. The charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
According to the criminal complaint, Saint Paul police responded to a laundromat on March 24 after a report of a man refusing to leave and possibly using narcotics in the bathroom. Officers found Kerr inside and confirmed he had an active warrant and was noncompliant with his registration.

Kerr is a lifetime registrant and Risk Level 3, the highest classification, due to convictions for first-degree criminal sexual conduct involving penetration in 1998, kidnapping in 2002 and first-degree criminal sexual conduct with continuous injury or force in 2002. He first registered with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension in 1999.
Kerr is considered homeless. His last registered address was a shelter in Saint Paul, which he listed in December 2025. He had not completed a weekly check-in with law enforcement since then, and his whereabouts were unknown until his arrest.

The BCA mailed four address verification letters between August 2025 and February 2026. The first was never returned. The remaining three were returned by the postal service as undeliverable.
In a post-Miranda interview, Kerr told officers he understood his registration requirements, including the obligation to check in with local police once a week when homeless.
Court records show Kerr also has an open case for fifth-degree drug possession in Ramsey County.
